LIBRARY NEWS
We have increased the number of new borrowers, some missing items have been returned and the electronic inventory is now beginning to be posted on this web page. Please use these PDF documents to help you choose your next book or DVD, inspire your Christian reading and mature your discipleship. A printed copy will also be available in the library. As always, please don’t forget to check out your items and return them promptly. And if you happen to find a long overdue item at home, please drop it by because there are still titles that have not found their way back, which makes them inaccessible to others. If you would like to assist in the library, please email Carrie at library@durhame.org.
