BOOKS Collections

The book collections in the LIBRARY at Pine Mountain are not fully inventoried. There are three large BOOK COLLECTIONS housed in the LIBRARY (Boy’s House). These include materials retained from the Community School LIBRARY under the direction of Mary Rogers during the 1950s through the 1980s; the E.J. Carr Collection; and the rare and special book collections held in the small ANNEX adjacent to the large collections and reading room.

The Elizabeth Culbreth Book Collection is the most recent addition to our book holdings. The Collection covers books not included in the general archival collections that were recommended for purchase or collection to honor “Liz” or “Libby” as some remember her. Her service on the Pine Mountain Settlement School Board of Trustees for over thirty-years gives her the distinction of the longest serving Board member of the Pine Mountain Settlement School Board of Trustees. Elizabeth retired in 2018 but retains close ties with her colleagues and with the School.

The following guide to book and periodical collections held by Pine Mountain Settlement School will continue to be a work in progress. As we receive gifts of books and as we add new titles, inventory in many of the collections listed below will increase.
