Learning Commons
The Learning Commons is the Exploratorium’s library and information hub. We support the educational, professional development, and research needs of Exploratorium Teacher Institute alumni and museum staff by providing access to a variety of electronic, multimedia, and print-based learning resources and technology. If you are an outside educator or researcher who would like access to the Learning Commons, please contact us to set up an appointment.
