The Department of Engineering was created by an act of the Legislature of the State of California, approved on March 11, 1907.
Section 1 of the contract law of the State Department of Engineering, approved June 8, 1915, provides that "Whenever provision is made by law for the erection, construction, alteration, repair or improvement of any State structure, building, road, or other State improvement of any kind, excepting improvements on the property of the State on the waterfront of the City and County of San Francisco under the jurisdiction of the Board of State Harbor Commissioners, the total cost of which will exceed the sum of $1,000.00, the same shall be under the sole charge and direct control of the Department of Engineering.''
Section 11 of the Department of Engineering law, approved May 19, 1915, is in part as follows: "All architectural work of the Department shall be under the charge of the State Architect. When, however, it shall be deemed to be for the best interests of the State, the Board of Control, with the approval of the Governor, may require and arrange for public competition, and in all such Competitions the Board of Control with the approval of the Governor and with the advice of the State Architect, may prescribe the schedule of prizes, the total of which, exclusive of the fee of the winner, shall not exceed one per centum of the amount appropriated for any building. The fee of the successful Architect shall not exceed six per centum of the cost of said building.''
The Legislature of 1913 passed an act designated as Chapter No. 235, Statutes of 1913 and to be found on Pages 389, 390, 391, 392, 393 and 394 thereof, which act was approved by the Governor on June 5, 1913, and which provided for the issuance and sale of State bonds to create a fund for the construction, equipment and furnishing of State Buildings in the City of Sacramento, to be used by various officers, boards and commissions of the State, and which act provided for its submission to a vote of the people. This act of the Legislature was ratified by the people at the general election held in the month of November, A. D. 1914. Section 5 of this act is as follows: "Section 5. Any and all moneys derived from the sale of the bonds provided for in this act are hereby appropriated and shall be used exclusively for the following purpose, to wit: The constructing and equipping of State Buildings in the City of Sacramento, State of California, for the various officers, boards and commissions of the State, at a cost not to exceed the total sum of three million dollars, such portion of said sum of three million dollars to be used for furnishing and equipping of said State Buildings as may be determined by a board consisting of the Governor, the presiding justice of the Supreme Court, and the State Librarian, which board for such purpose is hereby created; provided, however, that no moneys provided for by this act shall be used for such purpose until a site suitable for such purpose, and acceptable to the State Board last above created, shall be donated or given to the State, the title thereto to be free and clear of all liens and encumbrances; the number of buildings and their location on the lands to be donated shall be determined by said board in this subdivision of this section mentioned; the plans and specifications for said buildings, and each of the same, shall be prepared under the direction and control of said board in this subdivision of this section provided for."

We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
