| FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF ANNANDALE LIBRARY |
| The church library consists of about 2,200 books. The largest part deals with religious material, from church history, various versions of the Bible and Bible interpretations, to theological works. There are sections containing reference material, biographies, fiction and several periodicals. The children have their own collection, from religious subjects to pure fun reading. With the exception of the reference material, books can be charged out by church members without an official time limit, but the librarian appreciates the return of the book after a few weeks so other readers can enjoy them too. We also have some periodicals, mostly of religious nature. |

| Do you enjoy Italian painting? If you do, you will want to see a beautiful addition to our library. It was sitting in our back rooms for a long time; it was sitting on the library desk for weeks, with a note asking for its owner – nobody claimed it. Now it has entered the library collection, and your librarian hopes it will be enjoyed.
Bellini, Giorgione, Titian, and the Renaissance of Venetian Painting, by David Alan Brown and Sylvia Ferino-Pagden. Washington: National Gallery of Art, 2006. (OVERSIZE Br) As you can read on the inside of the cover, this book gives you “a new thematic approach to Venetian Renaissance painting, exploring the interrelationship between some of Western art’s most beautiful pictures and their creators.” |
