Library
Broadway’s library, with a collection of more than 18,000 books and media, provides a source of education, inspiration, and enjoyment to members of all ages and interests. Shelves hold biblical research materials, selected fiction and non-fiction books, tapes, CDs, and DVDs, and an extensive assortment of juvenile and children’s books. Every effort is made to keep the collection current and relevant. Computers and printers are available for members to use. Volunteers, devoted to this unique and distinctive aspect of Broadway’s ministry, staff and maintain the library.
The present library dates from 1929 and has benefited through the years from the volunteer leadership and guidance of professional librarians. The Library Guild, open to all interested members, oversees the operations and outreach programs. All acquisitions for the library are funded from gifts, memorial or honorarium designations, and bequests.
The library hours are 9:00 – 10:45 a.m. and 12:30 to 2: 30 on Sundays. 10:00 – 2:00 on Tuesdays. 6:45 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesdays.
Lydia's
Lydia’s in the Library, as it is affectionately called, is a boutique and bookstore located within the Church library. Here you will find note cards, books authored by members, jewelry, t-shirts, crosses, music CD’s and some unique Broadway memorabilia to name a few. Most of the proceeds from the store go to support different ministries offered at Broadway Baptist Church.
