The IV Library
Thanks to the generous collaboration of the Graduate Christian Fellowship at Duke, there is now library of resources available in our office of the Chapel Basement. The books, mainly from Steve Hinkle, the graduate staffworker, discuss a huge variety of topics. While we don't hold any of these books as absolute sources of truth or completely representative of what we beleive, they can be helpful in enriching your walk with Christ or learning more about a specific topic. Please take advantage of this great resource!Getting To the Library
The library is located in the Graduate Christian Fellowship office in Chapel Basement 033. The easiest way to find the office is to enter through the Student Ministry door (below) on the basement level of the side of the Chapel, facing the Bryan Center and near the Catholic Center. Make a right when you get to the lounge with couches. 033 will be the third door on the right (ask one of the Chapel Staff if you can't find it). There are two offices in the room. The Lutheran ministry office is first. Enter quietly through the office and the door to the GCF office will be straight ahead of you.Note: the library is only open when the Chapel is open.
