Read. Discover. Grow.
Whether you’re looking for something to deepen your faith, a thoughtful read on an issue facing our world, or a new story to share with a child, The Book Corner is here for you.
St. Andrew’s collection includes books for children and adults exploring faith, spirituality, justice, history, reconciliation, community and the world around us — along with stories simply worth discovering.
Everything in The Book Corner is free to borrow, with no overdue fees.
Find the Book Corner
Our collection can be found in two locations at St. Andrew’s.
📚 Children’s Books & Games
Our children’s collection includes picture books, faith-based stories, educational resources and games for children and families.
You’ll find the Children’s Book Corner as you exit the Weber Street side of the Sanctuary.
📖 Adult Books
Explore books on Christian faith and spirituality alongside thought-provoking works engaging with contemporary issues, Canadian life and the wider world.
You’ll find the Adult Book Corner to the right of the Queen Street exit of the Sanctuary.
Returning a Book
When you’re finished, simply place the book in the white return bin.
Our Book Corner volunteers will return the borrowing card to the book and place it back on the shelf.
We encourage books to be returned within three so someone else can enjoy them.
If a book is lost or damaged, just let us know.
Come Browse
You don’t need to know exactly what you’re looking for. Take a few minutes to browse the shelves, discover something unexpected and take a book home with you.
There’s always something new to discover in The Book Corner.
