OCQG Library
The Library Committee welcomes all Guild members and hopes they will fully utilize the library.
Renewals can be done at the meeting or by contacting the Library Chairman prior to or on the due date. (The Library Chairman’s phone number and e-mail address is located in the member directory.) If someone else has requested the book, no renewal will be permitted. Only two renewals allowed consecutively on a book. You may also place a reserve on a book by contacting the Library Chairman by phone or e-mail.
Our library is quite extensive and contains information on various techniques, seasons, themes, etc. Please see the current listing at the library table or on this website. New additions will be printed in the newsletter.
The Library Committee thanks you for your cooperation adhering to the procedures. Please consider the Guild like the Public “Quilting” Library. It is here for you and we want to help you become a better and stimulated quilter.
