Over 30 years ago I visited @PlanetreeLib @Planetree in San Jose. It was very influential on work I did on health information. Sad to see itās just closed, so this morning I wore the running shirt they gave me for @claphamparkrun @parkrunUK
Sorry to see this @PlanetreeLib @Planetree I remember the health library in that lovely wooden house in San Jose. planetree-sv.org/about/
