Mission
The Philadelphia Yearly Meeting library has an extensive collection of Quaker pamphlets, books, periodicals, and audio-visual items for all ages. Library materials are available to help with spiritual inspiration and formation, work on social concerns like undoing racism and eco-justice, religious education and Quaker studies. While posted hours are limited, questions can be left on voicemail or email 24/7.
New items are being processed regularly; your suggestions are also welcome.
