Library Corner (Thursdays, 10am-12pm)
Today I would like to give a refresher note on our main library, which is located in the Fellowship Hall adjacent to the kitchen.
Trinity’s Hazel Nutt Memorial Library is a small wonder. We have a solid Bible commentary collection and a large devotional and prayer section. We have a New York Times and international bestseller shelf. We also have a wide range of local authors and a new arrivals shelf. There are a few notable DVDs in our collections.
In addition to the book and media collections, we have puzzles, games, and rare and unusual items called “incunabula” in library parlance. These include archival photos, rare books, and an eclectic permanent art collection. There is also free Wi-Fi.
The library is open Thursday, 10 a.m. to noon, Sundays after church, and by appointment. For more information, email me, Larry the Librarian, at lawrence.vilardo@gmail.com.
— Warm Regards, Larry the Librarian
