About My Library

The Your books menu option provides access to the CFM collection, displaying useful search data, including title, author, subject areas, and our CFM Call Number. To see different views into the collection, with/without cover thumbnails, try the different options next to the Style button.

A drop-down menu at the top left corner indicates the name of a collection the page is displaying (Your Library by default). By clicking on other items in this menu, you can limit the scope of your search. Selections include:


  • All Collections (everything in our library plus our wish list)

  • Your Library (all print materials in our library)

  • Pendle Hill Pamphlets

  • Pamphlets (not Pendle Hill)

  • First Day School (materials for the First Day School teachers)

  • Spanish Language

  • AV collection (audiovisual)

  • Wishlist (books not in collection but suggested)

  • Printed Supplement (includes recently added materials)


Searching LibraryThing

To search the CFM collection, enter a word or phrase in the Search field ("Search this library") found in the top right corner directly underneath the “Search LibraryThing” field. (The top right search box is not limited to the CFM collection.)

A drop-down menu to the right of the box allows you to limit or expand your search. Selecting “Most fields” is often preferable to searching “All fields.” You can narrow your search by choosing “Titles/authors,” “Subjects” (which uses Library of Congress subject headings), “Tags” (which uses our broad subjects), etc.

About Me

Charlottesville Friends Meeting maintains a small library containing more than 1,700 catalogued items and additional uncatalogued items such as Quaker magazines and newsletters from various Quaker organizations. The materials cover such topics as Religion, Bible Commentary, Biography, Quaker History, Children’s Literature, Spirituality, Quaker Testimonies and the Society of Friends in general. The collection emphasizes items of interest to Friends, especially those not available in the public or university libraries. It also includes materials by CFM Friends/attenders, especially those in the scope of the collection.
