Motherhouse offers a growing collection of books and magazines for loan, thanks to many generous donations of time, materials, and money. Visit our dedicated shelf in the Cornwall Free Library Children’s Room, Cornwall, CT. It is the fourth shelf on the left of the E. F. Lansing Children’s Wing of the library.
Our unique collection is available for loan to provide support, encouragement, and opportunity for mothers and others to strengthen parenting skills, to broaden life views, and to improve family and personal physical, emotional and spiritual health.
