The LASFS has a large lending library of science fiction, fantasy and genre-related nonfiction books. Housed in the 4SJ building, it consists of more than 20,000 volumes. The library takes quite a lot of work to maintain and more than a few librarians. The head librarian is currently Vanessa Van Wagner, assisted by a cadre of able volunteers. Library work parties are regularly scheduled on the 4th Saturday of each month, and members are encouraged to participate in keeping our collection up-to-date and in good order.

One of the things that makes the LASFS library unique is that every book, publication, or video is available to any member to borrow, even those that are rare and unusual. The LASFS library is firmly committed to this type of open access.
