Reimagine the Mission Branch Library with Us
Help us raise $1.1 million for fixtures, furniture, and equipment that the City cannot fund. The Mission Library was the first neighborhood branch in San Francisco. Rebuilt on 24th Street in 1915, the branch was one of hundreds of libraries across the country funded by philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. In a densely populated and diverse neighborhood, the branch serves as a community hub with multilingual collections and programs for children, families, and adults to engage in lifelong learning and the joys of reading.
The renovation will incorporate cutting-edge library design, upgraded technology, integrated health and safety systems, and revive the historic architecture of the landmarked building. While the City funds construction costs, Friends of the San Francisco Public Library is raising $1.1 million for state-of-the-art fixtures, furniture, and equipment inside the building, as well as programs across the Library system.
