The Prelinger Library

The Prelinger Library in San Francisco’s South-of-Market neighborhood offers a diverse collection of 19th and 20th-century historical materials, open for research and inspiration, focusing on content not commonly found elsewhere. Founded in 2004 by Megan Prelinger and Rick Prelinger, it serves as a hub for local and international artists, writers, activists and makers, drawing around a thousand visitors annually who contribute to its evolution and vibrancy.
