OLC Parish Library Mission Statement
To provide our parish family with materials that are consistent with the Catechism of the Catholic Church that will help to expand our knowledge and deepen our faith in Jesus Christ and His Catholic Church.
About The OLC Parish Library Website
This website will give you the ability (from our parish library computer or your own computer) to see which Catholic books, VHS tapes, CDs and DVDs we have in our parish library.
By clicking "Book Selector" above on the menu bar, you can access our book and VHS/CD/DVD list. The indexes are sorted by using the first letter of the title. You are also able to search using key words by clicking "Search" above on the menu bar.
After making your selections, just write down the titles and bring them into the parish library. The parish librarians will help you locate them on our shelves and will check them out for you.
About The OLC Parish Library
Parish Library Hours of Operation (PLEASE NOTE EXTENDED HOURS DUE TO DEMAND):
The parish library will be open on Sundays after both Masses (10:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.—or until all parishioners have been served).
Please see dates below when the library will be closed.
Catholic Trivia Game:
During our open house on Sunday, October 5, stop in to preview our new Catholic trivia game (based on the Catechism of the Catholic Church).
Starting Sunday, October 12, from 10:15-10:45 a.m. on Sundays in the parish library, join us in the fun of playing this Catholic trivia game with other parishioners of all ages. No sign-up necessary—just show up. We hope this game encourages more Catholic reading!
Thank You to All Who Helped With Our Parish Library Automation Project!
The OLC Parish Library Automation Project was a long and arduous task set before us (we believe, by the Holy Spirit). We’d like to thank the OLC parish community for financing this project—without your financial support, this project would not have become a reality.
There was a core of people who worked diligently for about ten months on the project, and there were others who, when asked to help us with certain aspects of the project, gladly pitched in and did their part. We’d like to recognize everyone who volunteered their time and talent and helped us bring the OLC parish library to the next level for the educational benefit of all of our parishioners:
