which literally means 'the secondary canon.' With one exception, all of these books are considered 'Old Testament'.
The apocryphal New Testament 'Letter of Paul to the Laodiceans', was once incorporated in many versions of the Bible.
However Laodiceans is now considered just a pastiche of other Epistles, and is omitted from contemporary Bibles."

Find a book above and read about this "American Minute" and learn more about history."The richest and most powerful society in history, called to responsibility, if not leadership, in the spherical, scientific, social[ized], secular,
dynamic, crowded, and contentious world promised us by the twenty-first century, must develop the facilities for knowing that world as completely as possible.
Of these our libraries form not the least important element." — Mortimer Graves (1893-1987) (source: http://people.virginia.edu/~jfo/quotes/quotes1.html)
"Library selectors are among the happiest, most fortunate members of the academic community. Their personal rewards are rich. They work independently and develop their own methods and standards.
They watch history unfold itself in the books and periodicals coming from the press. Little by little, they acquire a mastery of the records of publication and a feel for their own collection, a practical
"erudition" all their own that no power on earth can take away. And they have the joy of placing their accumulated knowledge and acquired skill at the service of their clientele
and of seeing in time the results of their work on the shelves of the library. — Robert W. Wadsworth (source: http://people.virginia.edu/~jfo/quotes/quotes1.html)
"However subtly, if you pay for access to a book, it does affect the way you use that book. I suspect that this is nearly always true. I also suspect it is true of many library services
besides the borrowing of books. — John Berry (source: http://people.virginia.edu/~jfo/quotes/quotes1.html)
"A library is an external human memory. — Frederick G. Kilgour (1914-2006) (source: http://people.virginia.edu/~jfo/quotes/quotes1.html)
