Curriculum Center and Children's Collection


The Curriculum Center has a new home in the east end of the north wing. The wooden shelves that had held reference, reserves and current periodicals have been reconfigured into a shallow U-shaped alcove. Lois and Craig arranged the children's books on flat shelves, fiction on one side, Bible story books and non-fiction on the other side. These books used to be in the lower periodical stacks.

The slanted current periodical shelving is perfect for the display of curriculum materials for children, youth and adults. Our goal is to carry samples of all current Faith and Life Resources. We have the Gather 'Round Sunday School curriculum, Generation Why (for high school), Fast Lane Bible Studies (for junior youth) and Good Ground (for adults). Earlier curriculum resources such as Jubilee and Foundations Series are also available.

The Curriculum Center also has Faith and Life Resources Bible School curriculum including Living Stones. Sample curriculum materials from other denominations are also available for comparison.

Now for a peek in the old Curriculum Center, soon to be an !Explore office.

Across the hall is the old library storage room, now being prepared for Janeen Bertsche Johnson's office. The new window was installed by Frank of DJ Construction. This picture is actually a few days old. The construction materials are all out and the room is prepared for painting.

More next week!
