Our business hours are Monday-Friday, 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM, excluding holidays. Although we make every attempt to keep the library open during our regular business hours, our staff is small (and often out in the field). Please call ahead at (760) 728-1332 to be certain that we will be here to greet you!

Need to get rid of that dusty old wildlife taxidermy, rock collection, specimen display or electronic equipment? We gladly accept donations of all types that will further benefit our efforts in natural resources conservation and our unique library.
