William Lee Hawkins Library
at First Presbyterian Church

Hawkins Library is located in the Session House. The library catalog is available to search from your computer, phone or tablet. There is also a computer available on the desk in the library for your use, as well as a printed title and author list. (The print-out may not contain the most recent additions.)
Books can be searched by title, author, or subject. From your search results list, look for the call number (Dewey Decimal number). The books are shelved in numerical order according to the call number, so that's how you will find your book on the shelf. (Fiction is shelved in its own section by the author's last name.)
We still use the card in the back of the book to check out, in order to make the process easy in our self-service library. (That means that all books in the catalog appear as "Available", whether they are checked out or not.)
When you find your book on the shelf, sign your name legibly and write the date (month, day and year) on the card in the back of the book and put in the file box on the library desk.
Our DVDs have not yet been added to the online catalog, but may be checked out. Our children's books (located in the Ministry Center beside Daewon's office) are also available to search online.
If you have questions about the library, email the librarian at librarian@firstpresnb.org or leave a note on the library desk. We try to check the email once a day and the written notes once a week.
