WESTERN SEMINARY CAMPUS LIBRARY RESOURCES Students who can visit our libraries in Portland, San Jose and Sacramento will also have access to Western’s collections of printed books, journals and magazines. Students in Portland have access to the collections of five private college libraries in the Pacific Northwest through the OPALL catalogue system. Portland-based students can request inter-library loans of books, articles, dissertations, videos and CDs. BibleWorks is also accessible through the computers in the Portland campus library.
CONTACT A LIBRARIAN If you would like to contact a librarian at Western Seminary, please go to http://www.westernseminary.edu/Library/ PDX/index.htm and click the button titled, “Contact a librarian.”
OTHER LIBRARY RESOURCES Students who can access other libraries may find through WorldCat.org that those libraries have helpful resources. Worldcat.org is a world-wide network of library content and services.
GUIDELINE FOR WRITING PAPERS It may have been a long time since you wrote an academic paper, so Western Seminary has provided you with clear instructions on the proper format, punctuation and grammar for you to use in the papers you submit. We have also provided you with many examples of papers written by our own professors. To see the Western Seminary Writing Guide and faculty papers, please go to http://www.westernseminary. edu/Papers/index.htm.
GREEK AND HEBREW FONTS If you take Greek or Hebrew, you will probably want to use Greek or Hebrew fonts in the papers you write, and you may even use them in the papers you write for Bible and theology classes! If you don’t already possess these fonts on your computer, you can download a free zip file with the BibleWorks Greek and Hebrew fonts – find the link to the zip file at http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.html
