Library History

 About the Library:


Our library is located in the basement floor, just beyond the church office. From the Oak Ridge Turnpike entrance, follow the hall to the right around the corner. From the Vienna Road parking lot, enter the small, uncovered door and go down the stairs. The library is straight ahead.


Tips for Using the
Online Catalog at Home--

The library collection is searchable on the web. You can also send the librarian an email from the top of the search screen with the information on the books that you need.

 See our list of New Books.

 You can search by title, author, subject, or keyword. Type in a search term and press, enter. Here are some tips for each type of search.

 Title Search

When you know the title and it begins with “The”, “A”, or “An”, omit these beginning articles. For instance with the book, “The Service of God”, you would enter, “Service of God”. You can enter any word or part of the title as well.

 Author Search

When searching for an author, type the last name first: For instance, “Smith, John”. You can also simply type the last name alone, if it is not a common name. For instance, you can enter “Rupp”.

 Subject search

When searching for a subject, you will capture more items if you put your subject word(s) in the “Keyword” section instead of the “Subject” section.

 When there are more than ten titles returned by the computer search,  select the “next” button at the bottom of the page to advance to the next group of titles.
