Meadville Lombard students and faculty enjoy full privileges at the nine libraries of the Association of Chicago Theological Schools and access privileges to the University of Chicago libraries. The university system contains nearly seven million volumes while ACTS adds over a million theologically-related works to library resources available locally. A regular courier system facilitates delivery of items between libraries. We are also connected with OCLC, the international database network which makes collections worldwide accessible for interlibrary loans. Computers for student use are also located in the library reading room, providing direct connections to the University of Chicago Library, the Illinois online catalog, and other databases.
