The Library is a Parish Ministry; your Time and Talent given here count toward the Stewardship contributions you have promised. All of the work in the Library is done by volunteers, like the group of parishioners seen here. Your help will be greatly appreciated.

From reviewing new books (as well as videos and audio tapes) to shelving and cataloging, there is always plenty to do.

Like all libraries, this is "a room with some books"; but that is where the similarity ends, because our Parish Library is different. Not only are the materials especially suited for Catholic family reading and research, they are selected by you, the readers in our Parish.

You will find a wide range of topics from deeply spiritual to humorous to childrens' books. We are also adding to our small collection of audio and video tapes.

Of course, the Library welcomes contributions from Parishioners; don't let books gather dust at home -- here in the Library they will be accessible to everyone in the parish, doing much greater good. Because we have limited shelf space, we have to pick and choose what we can offer. You might want to help with the demanding task of reviewing incoming materials and making recommendations as to what should be kept and what might be better used elsewhere.

You can contact the Office or call 870-2386 to volunteer, make contributions, or find out when the library will be open.
