Faith & Learning Network

The Faith & Learning Network brings together the knowledge of scholars who are exploring a Christian worldview in their academic work. The Faith & Learning Network includes a bibliographic database and special library collection, bringing Christian resources together in one physical and virtual location.

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:

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. 

Repository Collection

We are in the process of moving the FLN Bibliography into our Institutional Repository. You can find what we have moved to date in the FLN collection of the Institutional Repository.

Library Collection

ICS has begun to build a Faith & Learning library collection. These items are integrated into the ICS Library, and supplement our current collection development practices. To search the FLN database on the click on 'Advanced Search' and select FLN Bibliography. 

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
