St. Paul's Library

VISIT THE ADULT LIBRARY, a wonderful place to visit, but still somewhat of a secret. The library is located in the basement level of the church. You may use the elevator or the stairs. The NEW ENTRANCE is now through the downstairs kitchen. Just turn right when you get to the lower level and follow the sign.

"I cannot live without books." -Thomas Jefferson

Thanks to Fr. Josh and his committee, we have a new library cart for the Great Hall. There are a variety of books available to check out. Look for the checkout procedure sheet attached to the cart. There are books for children and youth, and for those who are interested in learning more about the Episcopal Church...for newcomers as well as old-timers. We also have books to accompany and complement the current Adult Formation classes, and some titles by the popular author Brene Brown.

THE CHILDREN’S AND YOUTH LIBRARIES Picture books and early chapter books are located in the lower level of the church near the Godly Play rooms. This library may be reached by turning right at the bottom of the stairs. Parents and other adults in the children’s lives are encouraged to explore the library with their children and choose books that they can read and discuss together. During the bridge sessions, youth may explore the chapter books and teen books, which are located on the second floor in their classroom. They can read the books during class free time or check out materials to enjoy at home. New books and books to highlight a collection can be found on the library kiosk in the great room. INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHECK-OUT Instructions for checking out are in the libraries. Please treat our libraries as you would the Public Libraries and return the books in three weeks. There are bins in the libraries and a cart by the reception desk for returning them.
