Location and Hours
Located on the lower level of the Broyles Community Center, the Library is open Monday–Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. and on Sunday mornings from 8:00 until noon.
Variety of Selections
The book collection is organized into categories that include biographies, classics, fiction, travel and geography, birds and wildlife, botany, history (including local history) and poetry. In addition to a large-print collection, audio and video options are also available.
Parents and grandparents visiting the Library for the first time are also pleasantly surprised to find an extensive collection of children’s books, videos, and movies.
The heart of the library is its religious works. Materials included are biblical study aids, classic sermon series, world religions, prayer, Christian living, inspirational and devotional writings, theology, church history and general reference.
Check-Out Procedure
The honor system prevails in checking out materials from the collection. Books may be checked out for 21 days; movies and audio books, 7 days. (It is preferred that no more than four videos be checked out at any one time.)
The check-out box is located in the front room with instructions posted beside the box. Simply sign the card that is in the pocket of the book or video, add the date and your lot number, and place the card in the box. Returns are to be placed in the cabinet in the hall beside the Library door.
Library Acquisitions
In addition to purchasing selections recommended to the Library Committee, books are often donated or may be funded to honor or memorialize friends or family members. Please contact Carolyn Omundson at 706-268-3420 if you would like to make a donation to the Library. We do wish to recognize your thoughtfulness in contributing to the collection.
