Prelinger Library

The World

After they met and married, Rick and Megan Prelinger decided to merge their extensive book collections and make it public. In downtown San Francisco, the Prelinger Library is literally a labor of love. Produced by Tania Ketenjian.

Do you support journalism that strengthens our democracy?

At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.

Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
