Lodge Library



Good Samaritan Lodge No. #336 has a small, but surprisingly extensive, library available to its members and Masonic scholars upon request. In our 150 years of existence, the Lodge has been able to compile various tomes on the history of the Lodge, the surrounding area, and Freemasonry in general. Our rule of thumb is that these resources are generally available to be “checked out” from the Lodge for those who are interested in expanding their knowledge, but there is one exception. This exception being that any book that is over 100 years old needs to remain physically in the Lodge building. However, these older books can still be viewed upon request. Anyone wishing to check out or read one of the books in the library simply need contact the Lodge Secretary.
