About AFA Library
Members of AFA are welcome to use the library for research by appointment. Please note: the AFA library is not a lending library; materials are only available on-site.
The Grant Trust, established by AFA founders Catharine and Ernest Grant, funds the repair of old astrology books in the library, many of which date to the 17th and 18th centuries. Also being funded is the development of a catalog database of all materials in the library. When complete, the catalog will be available on the AFA Web site.
