The name of the group, beyond referencing The Pacific Ocean that hugs the west side of San Francisco, also has a historical connection to the San Francisco Public Library. The first public library in San Francisco was located in Pacific Hall. 

According to the San Francisco Public Library website, "The doors of San Francisco’s first public library swung open on June 7, 1879 in Pacific Hall, a rented space housing a collection of 6,000 books in a Bush Street office building in the Financial District."

We aspire to create a community of book lovers that supports  the library in all of its future endeavors. We look forward to meeting you!
