Library

The library on the second floor of the GAI offers a variety of materials in the German language for members to use and check out. Besides books (fiction, history, travel, language, children/youth), the library’s collection includes audio recording on CD-ROM and cassettes as well as DVD movies from Germany and other European countries. For children, the library offers a variety of programs on cassettes and DVDs. All DVDs are compatible with US-standard DVD players and many include English subtitles.

Members can check out materials at any time when the GAI is open (usually Monday through Friday 10:00 am to 4:30 pm). In addition, the library is staffed during events such as the monthly dinners.

Books can be checked out for three weeks, movies and other media for one week. To return, just drop the materials in the library or in the wooden box outside on the back porch; you can also mail items back to GAI Library using the discounted book rate.

Contact the GAI Office for any questions or if you are interested in volunteering.
