The First Presbyterian Church Library offers a collection of books, periodicals and other materials which provides devotional, denominational, Christian and life enrichment information to support the mission of the church’s teaching, preaching and evangelistic endeavors. The goal is to assist the congregation’s search for an understanding of the faith in order for members to realize their full potential as children of God.

The church library is recognized as an important part of the ministry of the church. It supports religious education by providing access to books and magazines not generally found in the public library. In addition, the library offers material to enrich lives, deepen understanding, and offer spiritual nourishment and growth.

The Library is located on the first floor of the main building near the Chestnut Street entrance.

Books can be located through the computerized catalog on the desk in the library. Instructions for using the catalog are beside the computer monitor.
