How does The Learning Center “work”?
Local churches in the New York Annual Conference may borrow most materials housed in The Learning Center. The catalog is now listed online at http://www.nyac.com/resource_find.asp . For inquiries about a resource, speak with Lynda Gomi at 888-696-6922 ext. 219 in the Office of Connectional Ministries. A quick search through the database can easily locate an item of interest and if we don’t own a particular resource, and if it fits into both the budget and the mission of the annual conference, we will make every effort to purchase it.
Resources ordered online are mailed to the church in a mailing pouch which is then used to return resources to the Learning Center.
Resources may also be checked out in the Learning Center. Don't forget to use the SIGN OUT book near the door. Include your name, contact information and the name of the resource being borrowed.
It is understood that materials will be returned to The Learning Center in good condition and in a reasonable time period. If a resource is damaged or lost, the borrower is responsible for replacing the item.
Interested in visiting the Learning Center? Please call ahead (888-696-6922, 219) to be sure the room is not occupied by another group. If your group is interested in having a day apart or workshop, the date must be reserved in advance.
We are available to provide this service at no cost to our churches because of the faithfulness of our churches in paying their annual “shared ministry dollars” (a.k.a. apportionments)!
