Mauk Lending Library

The Mauk Lending Libary was founded in 2008 in honor of former member, Bryant Mauk, who bequeathed his extensive book collection to the church after his passing. The library has both adult and children sections with an extensive collection of books on a variety of topics. 

Located just off the patio in rooms 602 & 603, the library is open every Sunday from 9 am to 1 pm. Books are checked out on the honor system and there are no due dates or late charges.
