For readers who value intention, beauty, and order.
Services
The Curated Library offers bespoke personal librarian services for private home collections in Southern California.
Each project is approached with discretion, precision, and an appreciation for books as both intellectual and personal artifacts. Whether your library contains a few hundred volumes or several thousand, our work is designed to bring clarity, beauty, and long-term usability to your collection.
Cataloging
We create a searchable digital catalog of your home library using professional tools that fit your needs. Each book is entered with accurate metadata and custom tags, resulting in a refined, searchable, and exportable record you fully own.
Organization & Shelf Design
Your shelves are organized in a way that reflects how you read and live — balancing logic, accessibility, and visual harmony. Organization may be structured by subject, genre, personal significance, or aesthetic preference, resulting in a space that feels intentional and effortless to use.
Custom Library
Services may be booked individually or combined into a comprehensive curation package. Every project begins with a consultation to understand your goals, space, and relationship with your books.
