The Holt Labor Library was a library in San Francisco from 1992 to 2019 that collected and made accessible primary and secondary
source material related to labor history and the history of the radical left, with an emphasis on the activities of American
Trotskyist political organizations. The Library also collected materials related to various anti-war movements, the women's
movement, gay liberation, the African American Civil Rights Movement, among other social justice causes.
