Beyond Books

A Library of Things is a collection of objects, gadgets and kits made available for lending. The collection allows patrons to borrow special items they would only use occasionally or to test a product or technology. As a part of the Library of Things collection, the Library offers two different museum passes. Both passes will gain free entry for up to 6 visitors to museums, gardens, galleries and historic sites in New Mexico.

Los Alamos Community Seed Library cultivates a community culture of life-long learning and sharing through seed stewardship:

Learn – we connect community gardeners from beginner to expert with resources, information, and programs about growing, harvesting, and saving seeds that tie us to local history, land, and culture.

Save – we support seed stewardship through the saving and exchanging of locally adapted, regional, and heirloom seeds that contribute to local biodiversity.

Share – we aim to establish and grow an accessible and sustainable source of seeds supplied by and for the community through exchange, donations, and lending.

The Library provides a carefully curated collection of book club titles. This collection features a variety of books available in multiple copies, allowing many patrons to read them simultaneously.
