The library has now connected one of its computers to the digital
projector which was once used in the sanctuary. It is now possible to
have this connected to the internet and project those images on the screen in
the library. As long as the print is not small this projects quite well. It will
also accept power point programs saved to a CD. Committees, councils, and other
groups are welcome to use this.
In addition to the internet catalog which
you can access on this site, you can also access the library catalog by clicking
on the lexwin icon on the library computers. This program
allows you to do more advanced searches of the subjects in our catalog. Remember
that you can also search the magazines, teaching pictures, and vertical file
both at home and in the library. This means that folks who have back issues of
the Biblical Illustrator at home may also consult our indexing services to find
the issue which as the material they need.
Two adult books which the
library has recently received are worthy of your attention. First, there is
The Leadership Lessons of Jesus written by Bob Briner
and Ray Pritchard. The authors here present 52 short chapters filled with advice
to help you become a more effective leader. For instance, "Resist the temptation
[when soliciting members of a committee,council, etc.] to extend your invitation
through a letter or phone call. No other invitations have the power and appeal
of the one-on-one method."
The second book is It's Not About
Me by Max Lucado. Lucado declares here that self-promotion,
self-preservation, and self-centeredness don't really make us happy, even though
everyone has told us that. He tells us here how to bump our
lives off self-center and experience the meaning-charged life we were
meant to have.
