Parish library
St. Vladimir's has a growing collection of materials in its parish library. These include books, DVDs, periodicals, and other items in both English and Russian. Items in the collection are arranged by language and category on Google documents. Click on the links to open individual tables to see what's available.
Library location
Unfortunately, the parish library does not have a physical home currently. Once the new church is built, a section of the old building will house the library. In the meantime, we want our materials to circulate. Most of the items are in the basement of the home of parish librarian, John Hill. Circulating items found on Google docs are available for borrowing. Refer to the Circulation policy for details. A printed copy of the collection is also available at church. Inquire at the kiosk. This copy will be less up-to-date.

Going to Russia?
Can you bring back a parcel of books for the library and/or the kiosk? Typically prices are substantially lower for titles purchased in Russia and the selection is much better. Unless you volunteer to transport a heavier parcel, it should run 5-6 lbs. or under. Contact John or Fr. Gregory if you'd like to help.
