The seminary will be closed on Monday, Jan. 17, in honor of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. We will reopen, and begin classes, on Tuesday the 18th.
Library Open to Visitors
We are open to community patrons, though our outside doors remain locked. Please call the library office to arrange a visit, 414-858-4995. Outside visitors are asked to wear masks in the library. Check out our new copy of the St. John’s Bible, on display near the Reference Shelves, given in memory of Fr. Charles Yost, SCJ.
Welcome to our newest staff member!
We welcome Mary Harty as our Circulation Assistant. Mary worked for us this summer on our inventory project and did such a good job we hired her! She has been handling course reserves, inter-library loans, clean-up processing from the summer project, and general circulation duties. She is part-time, four mornings a week.
A Blessed Feast of St. Jerome to all
Today commemorates the death (or birth into eternal life, if you prefer) of St. Jerome, Biblical scholar and Doctor of the Church. Best know for his translation of the entire Bible into the common language of Latin (a.k.a. the Vulgate) from the Hebrew and Greek, he is also known for his Scripture commentaries and his feisty temper. He is the patron saint of archaeologists, librarians, Biblical scholars, translators, and students.
Why are there slips in the books?
As you enjoy the new arrangements in the stacks, you’ll notice that some books have slips in them. We have a number of books that need repair, whose call numbers are incorrect, or with the same call number as other books in that subject area. Books with slips indicate that there is a problem to be resolved. You are welcome to check out these books and we ask that you leave the slips in them. Use it as a bookmark! We hope to complete the project by early October. Update
