UUCR maintains a library in the Olin room of more than 900 books that any member is welcome to browse and check out for personal use. 

  • Follow these instructions to access and navigate the catalog from your own device.
    Note: You do NOT need to create a member login to search – ignore that field.
  • A handout with instructions for how to check out and return books is in the Olin room. 



You’ll find six main categories, organized by call number:

  • Church Life (information helpful to those leading or administering congregations)
  • Human Development (psychology, sexuality, parenting, creativity, grief, etc.)
  • Philosophy (thinkers not necessarily concerned with religion)
  • Social Issues (environmentalism, social justice, history, etc.)
  • Spirituality/Religion (all faith traditions; humanism; atheism)
  • Unitarian Universalism (introductory; history; special topics) 
UUCR Library: May these words sustain you at mystery's edge

Donations that fit into one of these six main categories are encouraged and welcome:

  • Books only – no multimedia, magazines, or journals.
  • Good condition – no or very minimal marginalia. 
  • Recent publication date, preferred – if you have an old edition of a book that has been reissued more recently, we’d be grateful for the newer version.
