The Peace & Justice Center Library
Throughout our history, the Peace & Justice Center has often maintained a library of books dedicated to social transformation and radical community work. We are so proud to continue this tradition!
Our library is free and open to the public during our regular business hours. Please feel free to come browse our selection and check out a book! You can also browse our catalog online via the button below. We currently lend books out on 3-week intervals.
In addition to books, we also have a selection of zines that you can take for free! We have some zines written by community members, and we have some zines written as part of Peace & Justice Center programming. The zines that are written for Peace & Justice Center programs are available online to download in our online Zine Library
