Coming Soon: Whole Earth Resource Library Thoreau Center for Sustainability
In an exciting step forward, Thoreau Center for Sustainability is creating a new green library. With a focus on sustainability, the Whole Earth Resource Center will provide local nonprofits, schools, and the Presidio-wide community with research and learning opportunities related to the environment. Located in the rear of building 1016, it will provide a new venue for events and allow the Thoreau Center for Sustainability to extend its sustainability principles to the larger Bay Area community. Stay tuned for the opening date of this new and unique community library!
Soon we'll be posting library documents on this web page so that you can learn all about becoming a member and supporter of this community library
