The library
Oak Hill houses one of the finest theological libraries in the south-east. It provides historical material and a wide range of contemporary resources from a variety of different traditions to support the teaching which takes place in college and to facilitate research.

There are over 54,000 items in stock, including multi-media items such as DVDs and CD-ROMs.

Access and library guide

The library is open 24 hours a day and 7 days a week to all members of the college community. Former Oak Hill students can join for an annual payment of £30 and visitors for an annual payment of £60 (9am-5pm, Mon-Fri only). Day visitors are allowed access for a daily charge of £5 (£3 for Old Oaks) if space permits. Please contact Wendy for further details.

Library Catalogue

Access to the catalogue on Heritage is now available offsite as well as onsite via the VLE. Registered members can log in with their user name and PIN to renew books. Other interested people can view the catalogue via the enquiry interface.

Journals

The library subscribes to approximately 200 current journals and also has a substantial collection of back issues. Some of these are also available online, although some need a username and password (members of the college community should contact Wendy for details). We also subscribe to two journal databases of full text articles which can be accessed onsite via the VLE and offsite by username and password via EBSCOhost. Please note that for subscription reasons this facility is only available to registered members of the library.

Other Resources

The library has a good relationship with many other libraries, both theological, general, academic, national and international, which enables virtually any item to be sourced.
