We go to Borders in the McCarthy Ranch Mall so the whole family
can hear good music or authors, not just to buy books, music,
and videos. You may need to set this up for Milpitas, but from
then on, it should show just the Milpitas store events and inventory.

searched for from among all Santa Clara County libraries and
saved for your convenient pickup in Milpitas.
