Resource Library

The Loft's Rachel Anne Gaschott Ritchie Resource Library features books by Minnesota authors, Loft teaching artists, and small presses. The library also includes regional and national literary journals, and books on writing.

Come in and browse, read, and relax. Research possible publishers for your latest work, read books by your Loft teaching artist, or delve into the local literary scene. There are books on getting started and getting finished, specialized books for writers in most forms and genres, books on most every aspect of the writing life.

The resource library is open to all, but all materials must remain in the library. The library is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Friday, as well as evenings and weekends when Loft classes are in session. The library is located next to the Loft offices, just off the Literary Commons area on the second floor of Open Book.

Donations are not accepted unless solicited.
