On June 20, 2001, the Board of Trustees of Saint Steven's Cathedral agreed to the completing of improvements,  the cataloguing of the cathedral library and to dedicate it as the Very Reverend Vladimir M. Mrvichin Library.

Vladimir M. Mrvichin—Protopresbyter, Cross Bearer, Dean Emeritus—was the founding priest of Saint Steven's Cathedral and served as the spiritual leader of our church community for 36 years until his retirement in 1983.  His devoted commitment to his ministry, to the Serbian Orthodox people, and to academics continues to leave its mark since his passing in 1987.
