Our Parish Library, located in our Parish Center, contains a large collection of fine books, with volumes that pertain to a great variety of subjects, ranging from Church History to Marriage and Family Life, and from Psychology and Counseling to Biography and Classics of Catholic Literature.  St. Columba parishioners also now have access to a wealth of references, on Sacred Scripture, Theology, Monasticism, and the Lives of the Saints.

*** Recent Updates ***

Two new categories have been added to those already on the shelves, thanks to recently donated volumes.

Now, you'll be able to find, right next to the Scriptural Studies, a section entitled,  The History and Writing of the Jewish People.  That collection includes a work by one of the greatest Jewish historians, Flavius Josephus, a contemporary of Jesus, who lived in the first century A. D.

And, there is now another special self, named The Children 's Library. In addition to a variety of books for young readers, it contains a number of very helpful volumes for parents and teachers, in order to aid them in directing young people in their reading quests.

Donations are always welcome, especially studies of Church history, and good, solid meditations on Christian family life.

Recently, a number of interesting books have been added to the following sections:

1. -Biography
   

2. -Classics of Catholic Literature
   

3. -Ethics and Morals (some challenging suggestions for how to make our troubled world a better place)
   

Everyone is welcome to make use of these resources that have been brought together for our pleasure and our use.  When returning one or more books, please simply put them on one of the library tables so that they can be sorted and returned to their proper places.

Anyone who may have questions about the library may feel free to email Dr. Bill Zehringer at drzehringer@gmail.com.
