Welcome to Native American Bible College Library
The Native American Bible College Library is a major source of information for
theological study and research serving the needs of the faculty and students
of the college. In keeping with the Purpose Statement of Native American Bible
College, the Mission of the Library is to provide the bibliographic resources,
research services, and the study environment necessary to support the
academic and related educational programs offered by Native American Bible
College to equip Christians, particularly Native American Christians, to be
effective in ministry to God, the Church, and the world.
Located at the south end of the Administration Building, the NABC Library houses
over 23,000 volumes (books, serials, sound and video recordings), CD-ROMs, and
vertical files. Approximately two thirds of the library materials are in the religion
category. A vast array of information is also available to NABC Library patrons via
the Internet, accessible through 4 patron computer stations in the library. Internet
resources may be accessed via links on the NABC Library Links to Internet Resources and the NABC Library Government Information Web pages.
Although students of all ethnic backgrounds are welcome at Native American Bible
College, the college was founded for the purpose of and has a special interest in
serving the Native American population. Hence, the Library houses a special
Native American Collection.
The facilities are conducive to study, all areas of the library are handicapped
accessible, and the building itself is centrally located on the campus.
Although the Library is primarily for the use of the faculty, staff, and students of
Native American Bible College, with the approval of the college president or the
library director, external users with a demonstrated need to consult the collections
and local clergy of any Christian faith may register for onsite use of the collection,
without borrowing privileges. The faculty, staff, and students have priority in the
use of materials, equipment, staff assistance, service, and seating.
