What's New In the Library?

A NEW LOOK IN THE RESOURCE CENTER

If you have visited the BCE offices during March and April, you probably noticed lots of confusion and different things going on, along with paint smells and noise. We have just completed a renovation project; creating a new children and family life room, new youth sections, and the ability to move and spread out many of our resources. We are finally just about back in place and we love it. The children’s room is a place where not only leaders come to look for resources, but children can hang out and watch movies while parents look around. In the renovation, we found many duplicate books and have placed them on a free cart in the hallway of the building. They are available for anyone to take and use. It has been wonderful. Please make every effort to come visit us soon. We will plan a grand opening for later in the summer when schools are close to starting up again but until then, come and enjoy. Thanks to the BCE and Salem Congregation for making this possible.
