For students

Get to Know Your Local Libraries: SFSU, SFPL, Sutro

Drop by between noon and 2 p.m. to meet librarians from three different libraries near you! Ask about the free services and resources you can get from each one:

J. Paul Leonard Library — We can help you spend less on textbooks, find great study spots for your style, explore unique archival materials, or borrow games and gear from our Library of Things. Say hello and take home a pen, bookmark, or limited-edition sticker!

Merced Branch Library — Get your San Francisco Public Library card on the spot for access to audiobooks, streaming movies and shows, music, bestsellers, and more. 

Sutro Library — Discover rare books, historical collections, and extensive genealogy resources available at this California State Library branch on the top floors of the SFSU library building.
