Bungalow Collection

The Bungalow Collection began in 1996 with a donation of materials from the Twin Cities Bungalow Club, and has been expanded since then with ongoing donations.

The books and magazines in the collection focus on bungalow homes and on the Arts & Crafts movement. Also included are related materials on architecture, urban design, and gardens. The materials are part of the regular collection at the Merriam Park Branch and can be checked out with a library card or requested through Interlibrary Loan. A list of materials in the collection is maintained by the Merriam Park branch library and can be viewed at the Information Desk.
