Join the Guild’s Bay Area chapter for a private tour of the Prelinger Library, San Francisco’s famed “appropriation-friendly” research library.

This tour will be led by co-founder and fellow author Megan Prelinger. Megan will guide us through the library’s unique collection of historical ephemera, periodicals, and maps that you won’t find in any traditional collection. Whether you are hunting for historical details for your next book or seeking inspiration, this tour offers a deep dive into an archive designed specifically for serendipity. 

There are only 25 spots available for this exclusive event so reserve your spot quickly!

Insider Tip: This library is non-circulating so you will not be able to check out items but feel free to scan, copy, or photograph items!
