Library officials unveiled a new Local History Room and 12 digital stories about Rancho Cucamonga on Friday as part of a digital story project funded by the California State Library.

Some of the people featured in the project include Councilman Dennis Michael, who talks about the Grand Prix Fire while he was the fire chief, and Joe Blackstock, the Daily Bulletin's history columnist, who talks about how the city got its quirky name.

Here's reference librarian Casey Marcarello, who talks about her family moving to Rancho Cucamonga from Virgina after watching a commercial about the Virgina Dare Winery. Click here to watch all 12 of the digital stories.
