Library Collections
The library is committed to building a high-quality collection of electronic and physical resources to meet
the research needs of our students. Formats include books, journals, reference works, and media that are
accessible from the online catalog or through electronic databases.
Reserve materials include items such as books and periodicals that are withdrawn from regular circulation
at the request of professors. Students may check out up to two reserve items from the circulation desk for a
period of two hours. A student may, within two hours of closing time, check out up to two Reserve items
for overnight usage. These items are due back the next business day within two hours after the library opens.
All items used in the library should be placed on a reshelving cart or returned to the circulation desk.
Library Account / I.D. Cards
Denver Seminary students do not need to have a Denver Seminary Photo ID card to check out library
materials. Providing your name or Denver Seminary ID number is sufficient. Using another student's ID
card for any purpose, including checking out library material, is prohibited. ID cards can be obtained free-
of-charge.
For student photo IDs, residential students can come to the front desk in the library, have their photo taken,
and receive their ID. Global students can send their name, student ID number, mailing address, and a JPG
headshot photo to library@denverseminary.edu. IDs will be printed and mailed.
