The Bookshelf
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
― Marcus Tullius Cicero
The Bookshelf has received a remarkable collection of books on religion and spirituality, many hard to find titles. Included are books on western and world faiths, most in like new condition.

Remember that the library welcomes donations of gently read books and magazines. Those that the library doesn’t need come to the Bookshelf, with all the proceeds benefiting the library. Don’t forget to visit the “back room” of the Bookshelf for newly stocked non-fiction and magazines.

Bookshelf hours are from 10:30-5:00 on weekdays and from noon-2:00 on Saturdays.
