Hear how libraries have benefited from their CLC Membership:
Our CLC membership keeps us aware of special discounts on electronic resources that would otherwise be way too costly for our funding level. We have been able to gain cost-effective access to resources like Encyclopedia of the Bible and its Reception. Elizabeth Fairall, Palm Beach Atlantic University (FTE: 3,700)
The Christian Library Consortium has helped my library be successful by enabling me to borrow items through interlibrary loan from large libraries to which I otherwise would not have access. Our library is also six years old and has 32,000 volumes. We depend on being able to borrow books from other Christian colleges to supply the books and journal articles that our students and faculty need. CLC makes that possible. Our administration is delighted with how much my interaction with ACL has benefited our ability to provide library services, and the resource sharing aspect, which CLC facilitates. Jim Mancuso, Northeastern Baptist College (FTE: 70)
The Christian Library Consortium has helped my library be successful through tactical collaborative initiatives which provide vendor discounts of scholarly materials focused on curriculum development. Craig Kubic, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (FTE: 2,078)
Our CLC membership allows us to receive a significant discount for being a WMS library and allows us to award a deserving senior the ACL Research Award. This has become a coveted award at the annual Awards Night celebration for SDCC graduating seniors and academic departments, especially their faculty, enjoy bragging rights! Ruth Martin, San Diego Christian College (FTE: 837)
Our CLC membership allows us to do "more with less" by providing significant discounts. We are also a part of the Reciprocal Borrowing Program which is a real asset to our distance education students and extension teaching site. Deborah McConkey, EPIC Bible College & Graduate School (FTE: 200)
