ALL library operations are conducted by volunteers of the Library Ministry, a part of the Adult Faith Formation Religious Education program. The Library Ministry has two goals:

1. To staff the library following all weekend Masses and during the week to the extent possible depending on the volunteers available

2. Develop a collection of resources that will educate and inspire parishioners in their journey of faith and serve as a resource to parish ministries

Would you be willing to serve your parish as a library host? A library host commits to staffing the library after a Mass for 30 to 40 minutes, once or twice a month. Parents may also serve as a host during their children’s Religious Education class. A host’s responsibilities include:

• Helping patrons find material

• Assisting with check outs

• Checking in returned material(s)

• Shelving materials

You can also volunteer for other “behind the scenes” library operations, special projects, and events, including:

• Assisting with the Book Fair

• Facilitating Book Discussions and Reviews

• Processing new material

• Updating the data base

• Conducting  inventory

All necessary training is provided.
