Ep 2: Divine Library

Big Little Issues

Mar 8 2022 • 36 mins

You might have heard it said that the bible is a library. If what Christians call the bible is indeed a library, contemporary questions around libraries might help us answer questions about this ‘divine library’. Questions like: "how does a library function in our social world?", "what kind of contemporary library problems and opportunities are we facing?", and "how do academic and public libraries work for the common good?".

Joins us as we talk to academic librarians, Lyndelle Gunton and Anna Lagos, who guide us through today’s critical questions around the production of knowledge and the fair and transparent access to truthful information. And eventually, how this can help us think more critically about the study of theology and the bible.
