ACCEPTANCE POLICY FOR MVUUC LIBRARY

We accept books and other media that deepen the understanding of our faith, enhance our search for meaning and provide guidance for our interfaith journey.  Works that affirm the sources of our tradition and promote the seven Unitarian Universalist principles are especially welcomed.

Before donating books please contact Delores Burris, burr88tm@gmail.com, or Rev. Ellen Livingston, revellenuu@gmail.com, so that we may facilitate the acceptance of your gift.
