Church Libraries

Did you know that the The Presbyterian Church in Morristown as 4 libraries?

  • The Library table in the Church Narthex,

and at the Parish House:

  • The David C. Lawrence library (primarily a reference library),
  • The Children’s Library (in Room 4, contains books for infants through early teens), and
  • The Devotional Cart located in the hall.

While the primary aim of the libraries is to provide church members with significant resource materials for study and spiritual growth, there is also a limited selection of fiction and non-fiction.  CD’s of the Sunday services are also available.

Here are some Books of Choice:

The Children’s Library has many wonderful Christmas books.

Come by the Parish House to browse and borrow a book anytime during office hours using our self-check-out system. On Sunday, there is always a member of the Library Committee on-hand between services in the Narthex to assist you in selecting something interesting to read.

The Children’s Library is one of the gems of our church.  Located in Room 4 at the Parish House, it is a wonderful place for parents to meet their children after Midweek or come early to pick them up and browse through the books with younger brothers and sisters.  Or visit the library during Church School on Sunday mornings at 9:00 a.m.

The check out process is very easy - just pull out the card from the front of the book; write your name, date and phone number on the card; drop the card in the blue basket that says "Check out Cards"; and go home and enjoy reading.  Return the book at your leisure...but please pick up another.
