The earliest library in Lancaster, known as the "Juliana Library," was established in 1759, under the name of "The Lancaster Library Company." It was the third subscription library established in Pennsylvania. In 1763 it was chartered, and, out of compliment to Lady Juliana Penn, daughter of the Earl of Pomfret, and wife of Thomas Penn, one of the proprietors of the Province of Pennsylvania, it was called the Juliana Library. The library at one time had about 800 books on its shelves and was fairly prosperous. Its most flourishing period was from 1760 to 1775.

The "Losungen" or passwords originally consisted of a verse of the Bible (followed by a stanza of a hymn) selected for each day by Count N.L. Zinzendorf, and at first circulated among the members of the congregation at the daily visits made by one of the brethren, later given out at the nightly gatherings of the Moravians. From 1731 they were published in print. The present collection comprises the "Losungen" selected by Zinzendorf and published each year under various titles. It includes a fragment of the "Losungen" for the year 1729 (v. 1, prel. leaves 20-28). After Zinzendorf's death the "Losungen" were drawn by members of the supervising board from a selection of 2000 verses of the O.T., the "lehrtexte" were chosen from the N.T. each to be followed by a stanza of a hymn.
