Sharla P. Boehm Collection

Owning Institution: Santa Monica Public Library

About this Collection

The Santa Monica Public Library is home to the most comprehensive set of Santa Monica city directories in the country. The digitization of those volumes expands access for all interested in using this invaluable resource.

Currently 13 of the 63 volumes are digitized and freely available online. We anticipate to have the entire collection of city directories digitized by 2024.

The digitzation is made possible by Barry and Sharla P. Boehm, long time Santa Monicans and Library supporters. The Boehm family wishes to name the collection after Sharla.
