Library in the DLC

Learn more about the wildlife along the trails or an exhibit in one of the galleries. Visit the library on the second floor of the Desert Living Center to view the unique collection of books and resources.

The Library offers a variety of resources such as introductory books for the novice, electronic databases for the specialized researcher and a kid's corner for young readers.

The library is non-circulating but visitors can use work stations, reading tables or an outdoor patio.

Visitors can also enjoy a collection of audio-visual materials in the media room. Listen to bird calls on CD or watch a DVD on sustainable living.

The library includes information on ecology, flora and fauna of the Mojave, water conservation, green architecture, wildlife, education, visual and performing arts, archaeology and history of the Southwest, nonprofit management and museum studies.
