Welcome to Our Library

Welcome to the Northern California Ecumenical Media Resource Center. We provide our community of churches with the media resources to support their Christian education, Outreach, and other Church Ministry programs.

We are a nonprofit library and invite churches of all faith families to join and share the resources. We enjoy the active support of three denominations: Presbyterian Church USA, United Church of Christ, and United Methodist. See Join Us to learn about membership.

Our inclusive library consists of approximately 3000 resources that include all types of materials: DVDs, videotapes, books, activity kits, sample curricula, and games. This diverse collection helps our members with their Church School and Christian education programs.
