Theological library in the new normal environment: New dynamics of institutional relationship

Abstract

The global pandemic has changed the course of how libraries function, transforming the service delivery, collection, space, and facilities of theological libraries. While there are discussions on faculty-librarians’ relationship, the value of the library committee and the need for cohesive library relationships with academic departments and other support offices are not fully engaged. This is much less in the conversations of theological librarians.

Hence, this empirical perspective from Henry Luce III Library (HLL) of the Central Philippine University hopes to provide insights on the role of faculty as members of the library committee and other stakeholders inside and outside the university.
