Library

The Hellenic Center ("HC") maintains a library available to members interesting in Hellenic themes. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Library Committee ("LC") to organize the library and supervise its function. For this purpose LC solicits the donation of books and other materials related to Hellenic culture. Donations should meet the following criteria:

- Be written in Greek or English;
- They should be in good condition;
- Their subject matters should pertain to Greek culture, arts and history; and
- Upon their donation, the books become property of the HC, through which the LC has the sole authority to decide about their acceptance of rejection.
