This book is an invitation, not only to theological librarians, but also to faculty and administrators, to broaden our conversations on teaching theology and religion and on the values we share.--Beth Bidlack Teaching Theology & Religion


Characterized as an exploration of the attic of the American Theological Library Association, the anthology presents 44 articles that have shaped the profession over the past few generations but are no longer easily accessible. They cover the distinctive character of theological librarianship, theological librarians at work and as educators, contexts and constituencies of theological libraries, reflections and reminiscences of the Association, and changes and challenges. Reference and Research Book News, August 2006 Melody Layton McMahon and David R. Stewart have compiled an anthology of some of the best contributions to the field of theological libraranship...Every theological librarian can profit from the book, which is meant to be a fun, thought-provoking read for working professionals. The Christian Librarian, November 2008 This book is an invitation, not only to theological librarians, but also to faculty and administrators, to broaden our conversations on teaching theology and religion and on the values we share. -- Beth Bidlack Teaching Theology & Religion
