The Association’s Library is a curated and growing collection of knowledge designed to support the intellectual and practical work of the Mandem delivering the Association’s mission. The collection spans philosophy, political thought, history, economics, urban design, land management, retrofitting, building maintenance, and city planning — among other disciplines. Through collecting and curating relevant works, the Library offers tools, context, and inspiration for those shaping the Ends on their own terms. Access to knowledge is essential for anyone working to shape and sustain their Hood. This Library exists to give the Mandem’s the tools to plan, act, and build with intention. Through collected texts and commissioned works, it provides a foundation for informed decision-making and long-term thinking.
