Articles also address major recurring themes in the prophets, such as “Angels, Messengers, Heavenly Beings,” “Covenant,” “Day of the Lord,” “Justice, Righteousness,” and “Warfare and Divine Warfare.” The scope of articles that have broad interest to Old Testament studies is narrowed to the intersection of the topic with the prophetic books.

  Suggested activities to make “Latino 2.0” a reality are • A careful evaluation of the information-seeking habits of Latino Bible students and teachers • The creation of clear links to library resources and support services currently available to them locally • The identification of Latino theological resources; a “Core Collection” that will be accessible online • The creation and design of an online course, or instructional aids, that are culturally relevant to help develop skills and writing proficiency • The provision of a virtual space to record and display historical and cultural portraits of faith in the U.S. Latino context, looking at current issues from a faith-based ideology. When I asked him about what programs, services, collections, and technology he would design specifically for them if he could, his response was that having a “core collection” of Latino resources for Bible Institutes and ATS member schools is crucial to meet the deeper and prevailing needs of the Latino community.

  The roundtable recommended three essential actions libraries must make to achieve the necessary transformation to remain relevant in the years ahead: 1) librarians must evolve from print media to user-focused media and become information specialists; 2) the culture of libraries and their staffs must change from a mindset of primarily ownership and control to one that seeks to provide service and guidance in helping users find information regardless of the format; and �) libraries must assert their evolving role not only within their institutions but share their information dissemination and retrieval expertise in other markets.15ammerman related the changing role of the academic library specifically to the seminary library.1� he identified three factors that seminary libraries should address as they move into the future: 1) collaborative models of scholarship and pedagogy involving both physical and technological infrastructure; 2) globalization, especially made possible by technology including providing library services to those at a distance; and �) changes in scholarly 8 ibid. 9 allen W.

However, the increasing duplication of academic programs in both colleges, and the commonly-cited advantages of e-books (title is available 24/7, accessible from any- where, can’t be lost/damaged, etc.) led to a change in policy: the library now purchases the elec- tronic format whenever it is available and will purchase physical titles only if the electronic format is unavailable and if they are requested by CUS faculty or students.

Through its spotlight on “central themes” of mission from an interdisciplinary vantage point, the Encyclopedia of Missions and Missionaries occupies a unique place within the array of reference tools that describe and interpret the phenomenon of christian missions.

summary:
  While the first three sections tend to analyze economic phenomena through theological lenses, Part IV, “Economic Analysis of Religion,” reverses that flow as religious phenomena are examined using economic methodologies. Picking up this theme, Paul S. Williams, in the essay “Christianity and the Global Economic Order,” contends that the economy has an essential religious nature (utilitarianism) and that failure to acknowledge this has led to the uncritical acceptance of a set of utilitarian value judgments (e.g., the ultimate purpose of an economic system is to promote economic growth; hence, the economic system is whichever one maximizes that growth by whatever means necessary).

  Jesus films have come to be understood as much more than simple adaptations of the gospel story, but as bearers of meaning and theology in their own right. Furthermore, Jesus films have now become a full-fledged subject of scholarly inquiry, with classes centered entirely on Jesus films becoming regular course offerings at many colleges and universities.

  Thus, theological librarians have a sense of vocation or calling that is not usually found among undergraduate liaison librarians. Furthermore, seminary and graduate school libraries often seek out librarians with theological subject expertise (usually demonstrated by the possession of a graduate degree in a theological subject in addition to a library school degree) to serve as theological librarians within these settings.
