Theological Libraries Month (TLM) is here and Library has planned several activities throughout October to celebrate. Here’s how you can participate:
- (Include list of activities here with times, dates and locations).
“TLM is an opportunity for us to show a side of the library that the campus community may not be used to seeing,” said (name), library director. “We encourage everyone to visit and learn that the library has more to offer than you imagined.” (Feel free to change this quote. However, you are encouraged to include a quote from your director.)
(Include a paragraph about past participation in TLM. If this is your first year, include a paragraph about why you think TLM is important.)
You are invited to visit us often. Whether on-site in the library or remotely, via e-mail or instant messaging, library staff are your guides through our digital and hard copy collections. We also can provide expert direction on how to navigate newly available sources. If you are researching a paper or looking for a colleague’s newest publication or something else entirely, you can find it here.
The American Theological Library Association (ATLA) launched TLM four years ago to highlight the vital role libraries play in theological education and to advance the value of theological libraries and library services to faculty, administrators, staff and students.
