Welcome!

The Florida-Suncoast Chapter of the Church and Synagogue Library Association invites anyone in the Tampa Bay Area (St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa, South to the Sunshine Skyway Bridge and North to the counties of Pasco and Hernando) to join us as we seek to support volunteer congregational librarians in their Ministry to their local congregations. Librarians of all denominations are welcome, regardless of their level of training or the size of their library. The Mission Statement of the Program Committee expresses the philosophy of the Florida-Suncoast Chapter:

"We believe persons attend our chapter meetings to experience fellowship, learning opportunities, sharing of ideas and support for their ministry in their local congregation."

With this focus, the committee attempts to provide the most useful programs with topics to support the library ministry, featuring books, tapes, CD-ROMS and other resources.

Join Us!

Meetings use many formats to bring training opportunities for librarians to learn to manage the tasks of a congregational library. We invite you to bring your challenges, ask your questions, and to share some of your skills with others.
