Title: Social and connected: The library in today’s seminary

Collection: Austin Seminary (Clippings)

Description: Seminary libraries are places that provide access to a winnowed subset of information about Christian doctrine and history, a far cry from the blunt instrument of Google searching. They employ professional staff to assist students and professors in exploring millions of pages of texts to find what is most pertinent for an assignment or research project. Seminary libraries take seriously the mission of theological education and how students study so that seminary graduates can lead with heartfelt passion that is informed by the patient whispers of the great cloud of witnesses who have thought deeply about the Christian faith. Social and connected, seminary libraries are an indispensable gift to the church.
