Lending Library

Our lending library of books and DVDs is a wonderful benefit to becoming a member of the Simi Valley Chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation.  The library is available at all our meetings if you like to check out a book.   We ask for a security deposit for $25 for any book/DVD checked out.

If you click on the link of each book title below, you'll find more information about these books - many of them have 'Thumbs Up' or 'Thumbs Down' review from the Weston A. Price Foundation which helps you get the basic idea of the book.  They are on sale on line at the Weston A. Price Foundation in which the money goes directly to the Foundation. 


If you have any books that you want to loan, donate or check out, please contact us at wapfsimi@gmail.com.   We encourage you to also donate Thumbs Down or terrible books so folks may study them.  In the inside cover, we will paste the 'Thumbs Up' or 'Thumbs Down' review to help the reader understand the gist of the book.


Your membership donation helps us to continue to grow our library.
