Lectionary
First readings always come fro the Lectionary.
The Lectionary is a number of large books which contain all the readings necessary for any Mass. There are usually three volumes that contain the readings for Sundays and Holy Days, and an additional three volumes that contain all the readings for the weekday Masses and various Votive Masses.
The Lectionary contains all the readings for Mass, for the two year cycle for daily readings, and the three year cycle for Sunday readings.
Some hymnals include the readings but the Lectionary is the book used at the altar which contains the readings.
Catholic AnswerThe Lectionary contains all the readings for Mass.
The lector reads from a book called the Lectionary which the priest also reads the gospel from. The book of prayers the priest reads from at the altar and chair is called the Roman Missal, or Sacramentary.
The basic purpose of the Common Lectionary is to provide over a three-year period a comprehensive reading of Scripture in the Church.

The Lectionary is the Book used at Mass for the various readings. It contains the First reading (from the Old or New Testament), a Second Reading for Sundays and Solemnities (from the New Testament), and a Gospel Reading for every day of the year, and every possible Mass for the year. It contains, within its various readings, the entire New Testament, and readings from all the books of the Old Testament spread out over a three year plan, which includes the entire salvation history. It is NOT the entire Bible, and certainly not arranged that way.It is arranged with the set of three readings for the Sundays, and two readings for weekdays through the year divided into the various seasons, Advent, Christmas, Ordinary Time, Lent, Triduum, Easter, Ordinary Time, and then the propers and commons for various Solemnities, Feasts, and Memorials through the year.
There is a book called a lectionary that lists them. A group of scholars got together and produced the list. The same list is used by a number of denominations including Roman Catholics and Protestants.
