A BASIC LIBRARY LIST FOR THEOLOGICAL INSTITUTIONS AND MINISTERS
In addition to representing evangelical traditions, a minister’s library should also include encyclopedias, biographical dictionaries, lexicons, Bible texts and versions, and works in the area of patristics; and representative works from Roman Catholic, Greek Catholic, humanist, liberal and dialectical viewpoints.
The list is not a catalogue of the only works desirable in a ministerial study, but aims rather to guarantee representation for literature from an evangelical point of view. Its special concentration is on biblical and doctrinal disciplines. This perhaps accounts for the fact that the Reformed tradition predominates in the choices, although other traditions are not excluded. The list is limited to works in English.
The arrangement under respective headings is not alphabetical by authors except where convenient. In the section on commentaries, for example, the order, after the complete sets, follows that of the books of the Bible. Although a minimal list of subject headings is employed, convenient categories are inserted within these headings. For example, under Systematic Theology the list repeats the usual order of introduction (doctrine of Scripture); complete theologies; the doctrines of God, man, Christ, salvation, the Church, and the last things.
Some additional bibliographical helps may be useful for further research. Among these are: A Bibliography of Bible Study; A Bibliography of Systematic Theology; A Bibliography of Practical Theology (Princeton, N.J.: Theological Seminary Library, 1948 and 1949). This series gives ample recognition to evangelical productions. Essential Books for a Pastor’s Library (Richmond, Va.: Union Theological Seminary, 1960, Third edition) gives fair recognition for evangelical literature. The Seminary Review, II/4 Summer 1956 (Cincinnati Bible Seminary publication, 45 pages) is a very evangelical list. A Bibliography for Pastors and Theological Students (Fort Worth: Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, 1951) and Wilbur M. Smith’s A Treasury of Books for Bible Study (Wilde, 1960, 289 pages) fit this category also.
