The Church Library on Christian Concerns and Solutions


Book Description

A BOOK FOR ALL SEASONS Sometimes wisdom comes with age. Im 76 now and I feel Ive attained some of this wisdom, so therefore I want to share all of this with you. This Christian pragmatic book then deals with many of the concerns in which the church or Christians should be involved. To look at the many topics that this book covers you should look at the table of contents in front of the book, and each topic can be read independently from each other, so that you just have to read those topics in this book in which youre really interested. Ive already published all these chapters over Internet and have recorded a total readership of over 14,000 people. Ive also been designated as a Platinum Internet writer. Looking at my background further, Ive attained a B.A. in Political Science (Roanoke College), a Masters Degree in Religious Education (NYTS) and Ive been a Christian since 1958. Im an Accountant, been active in Politics and have taught Business English to some of the top managers in Argentina for 25 years.

Church Ministry by Design


Book Description

Packed with detailed looks into the makeup of a church community, Church Ministry By Design powerfully presents a step-by-step biblical guide to organizing and effectively running a church. The church of the 21st century has a number of challenges facing it, not all of them spiritual. How the staff handles the enormity of local regulations, social pressures, and legislation will affect the way ministry is done. Church Ministry by Design provides a blueprint for organizing the church for the future, and addresses a large number of ministries the church may choose to provide for its community. Author and pastor Gary H. Woolverton brings together information that assists the staff of the church in developing, maintaining, and evaluating effective ministry and is designed to help the church thrive in the 21st century. Watch for the continuation of this ministry, as the next volume in the series, Position Descriptions by Design, is released soon.

Libraries at the Heart of Dialogue of Cultures and Religions


Book Description

From antiquity until the present, libraries have served to witness cultural and religious exchanges between civilizations. A number of famous libraries have often acted as the cornerstones of the history of humankind in all its diversity. In 2014, in addition to the world congress of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), satellite meetings were held in Paris. The theme of these meetings was “Libraries at the Heart of Dialogue of Cultures and Religions”. The presentations centred around three aspects: “Religious Libraries and History,” “Anticipating and Facing Urgent Issues,” and “New Technologies and Networking to Solve Some Issues.” The publication of these proceedings allows to draw up a panorama of the questions raised by these themes, highlight some initiatives, and offer solutions or lines of thought to professionals and Library and Information Science students.







Theological Libraries and Library Associations in Europe


Book Description

During the past 50 years, theological libraries have confronted secularisation and religious pluralism, along with revolutionary technological developments that brought not only significant challenges but also unexpected opportunities to adopt new instruments for the transfer of knowledge through the automation and computerisation of libraries. This book shows how European theological libraries tackled these challenges; how they survived by redefining their task, by participating in the renewal of scholarly librarianship, and by networking internationally. Since 1972, BETH, the Association of European Theological Libraries, has stimulated this process by enabling contacts among a growing number of national library associations all over Europe.
