Welcome, Incoming HDS Students!

Let us inspire you with many possibilities for discovery and research—your research. We eagerly await your arrival.

The Andover-Harvard Theological Library is one of the finest theology libraries in the country. We are also part of the largest university library in the world—the Harvard University Library. With 15 million volumes spread over 90 libraries and thousands of electronic resources, this library system has much to offer.

Orientation Tours: Take a small group tour during Orientation on Tuesday, September 12; Thursday, September 14; or Friday, September 16. Let us get to know you, so we may serve you better. Meet our staff and learn your way around the library, including the location of the most comfortable chairs on campus!

If you are unable to take a group tour, contact a reference librarian, 617.496.AHTL (2485), for a personal tour.
