The goal of the Parish Library Committee of St. Jude The Apostle Catholic Church is to develop a quality collection of current and classic books and audiovisual materials related to Catholicism and Christianity in order to provide adults, youth and children with spiritual inspiration, information, and guidance.
St. Jude The Apostle Parish Library is located in the Christian Formation Center. The Library is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM and during Religious Education classes.
All are welcome to browse and enjoy our collection of books, CDs, DVDs and reference materials. For your searching convenience, the card catalogue and computer catalog list all of our library holdings by author, title, and subject.
The circulating collection is self-service and includes an interesting and growing variety of books and audio-visuals. One can find materials on spirituality, prayer, Sacred Scripture, the sacraments, family life, Church history, art, biography, fiction, and literature.
In addition to the circulating materials, we have a non-circulating reference section, which includes encyclopedias, Bibles, concordances.
The library can be enjoyed by the whole family. A special section for children and youth includes age-appropriate books and DVD's.
All materials except reference books may be checked out for a period of three weeks. It can be renewed unless someone is waiting to check it out.
New volunteers are always welcome. If you are interested in learning more about the Committee call St Jude The Apostle’s Catholic Church Parish Office at 302-644-7300 and leave your name and phone number and someone from the Committee will return your call.
