Shelter Partnership, Inc. has a small library which contains local, regional, and national studies, reports, and other literature on homelessness and housing. Library materials are divided into various subject categories (e.g., Homeless Families, HIV/AIDS Housing, Funding Programs, etc.). There are over 5,000 documents in the library, dating back to the 1980's when homelessness escalated.
The library is open to the public by appointment only, weekdays, 9:15 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Library materials may not be removed from the library but may be photocopied for 5¢ per page. To make an appointment, contact Shelter Partnership at (213) 688-2188.
