09 | San Francisco Public Library

Service interruption:

August 5, 6 p.m. to August 6, 9 a.m.: The library’s primary catalog system, Bibliocommons, and related products (search functions, book carousels on the homepage, etc.) will not be available due to system maintenance. Patrons can search our collections via our legacy catalog during this outage.

Library Re-openings:

Due to ongoing staffing shortages, the Library will continue to offer limited library services after June 15. We thank you for your patience and support as we work to restore library services systemwide.

Virtual Programs Now Available:

Please join us online for storytimes, book clubs and other virtual events. Visit our event calendar to learn more.
