*** A Request from the State Library of Pennsylvania *** The State Library of Pennsylvania is collecting materials by or about religious communities in Pennsylvania, as well as materials on religion written or published in Pennsylvania. They have already received some assistance through us, but could use more. They are requesting any autobiographies, biographies, histories related to any faith or individual church, congregation, building or movement as it regards its history or story in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. They write that the State Library of Pennsylvania would be interested in obtaining such material. "All faiths and groups are welcome to send material or to let us know the cost of material," including Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, atheist and agnostic groups and any others. Prayer books and hymnals would be considered at this time, as would any pamphlet, periodical, directory, or other book (but not small fliers or church newsletters at this time).
