Geocache Description:

Since Oxnard doesn't currently have any Letterbox Hybrids, here is its first in a while!
This is how a Letterbox Hybrid works: instead of giving you coordinates, I'll give you clues you need to follow to find the cache. Also, in addition to a log book, there's a stamp inside the cache. If you have a piece of paper with you, stamp the cache's stamp on it (I've left some scratch paper if you don't have some). If you have a personal stamp on you, stamp the log book! PLEASE LEAVE THE STAMP!

EDIT 4/3/17: Twice I've noticed trackables go missing in this cache. I would NOT leave trackables in this cache.

This geocache is NOT available 24/7.
The hours you can get it are:
Monday-Thursday: 9am-8pm
Saturday: 9am-5:30pm

If you are unfamiliar with a certain topic in the library, a very helpful place is the Reference section. You can find lots of good information there, such as "What is a Letterbox Hybrid?" I've left a Letterbox Hybrid as a reference for geocachers who are unfamiliar with what they are; it's literally what I imagined when I first heard of a Letterbox. To find it, just go to the Reference section and find the "book" labeled:
