Faith & Learning Network

The Faith & Learning Network Bibliographic Database

The Faith & Learning Bibliography (FLN) is a comprehensive database of resources related to "faith and learning," accessible to scholars around the world via the internet.

The Bibilography incorporates:

• • materials produced by scholars whose academic work is rooted in their Christian faith

  • materials that explicitly address the role of faith in learning

  • materials that, while not addressing this matter directly, embody an effort to engage in scholarly work as a Christian

Presently, the Bibliography includes over 7,300 citations, many of which refer to items held in the ICS library. We welcome scholars who wish to contribute further to the bibliography. Entries can be found on both the online ICS library catalogue and the Institutional Repository. 

Document Delivery / Inter-Library Loan

Many books and articles listed in the database are available to North American scholars via inter-library loan or document delivery. Document delivery is also available internationally.

International Scholars: We will strive to assist international scholars in finding local holdings of books listed in the bibliography. Document Delivery is available to IAPCHE members at a nominal fee. The special circumstances of researchers in developing countries will be accommodated.

Knowledge Base

As part of our network, we plan to develop a Knowledge Base of scholars whose work is included in the bibliography. Relevant information would include:

• • fields of study/expertise

  • education

  • current position

  • courses taught, etc.

Interested scholars and educational institutions are encouraged to forward both bibliographic and curriculum vitae information (see criteria below).

Add to the Faith & Learning Network

ICS welcomes further citations to add to the Faith & Learning Network Bibliographic Database. Citations should meet the following criteria:

• • Works which relate directly to the topic of the relationship between Christian faith and teaching/learning in higher education

  • Works which treat this topic briefly or indirectly

  • Selected works which clearly demonstrate a Christian perspective in their scholarly approach

Please submit citations to the Bibliographic Information Manager at librarian@icscanada.edu.
