Park Branch Library

As part of the bond measure overwhelmingly passed by the voters in November 2000, the San Francisco Public Library renovated the Park Branch Library. Renovations included new accessible restrooms, more defined areas for children, teens, and adults, new and restored furniture, increased capacity for books and other materials, a children’s area with interactive early learning features, more functional and ergonomic staff work areas, reconfigured program room with state of the art audio visual equipment, additional computers, new heating system, upgraded electrical & data systems, and much more. The Park Branch was seismically upgraded and made accessible in the early 1990s. The renovation complied with current code requirements when remodeling the interior while preserving the historic character of the building.
