COLLABORATION WITH MINISTRY & MISSIONS
Check out the online reading list for recommended books from the Office of Ministry and Missions McKee Library is proud to partner with the Office of Ministry and Missions to provide the campus community with recommended books on the topics of faith and doubt, as well as a list for the 21 in 21 initiative. Accessing the Reading List To access the Office Ministry and Missions reading list, visit the library’s website and follow these steps: 1. Select Collections on the right side of the screen. 2. Next, select “Reading and Viewing Lists”. 3. On the following screen, you will see the “Office of Ministry and Missions” list. This list is broken into two topics. All items listed can be placed on hold and picked up at the circulation desk.
Select titles from the recommended titles are currently on display on the library’s main floor. Reading/Viewing Lists Much like the list created with the Office of Ministry and Missions, McKee Library can create a coursespecific reading and viewing list for an individual class or on a topic of interest. Materials in the list can include physical and electronic books and physical and streaming media titles held in the library’s collection. While articles and online materials cannot be added to a reading list, a custom research guide might be an excellent alternative. A
research guide can include links to your reading list, but also to online content such as YouTube videos, articles, internet links, and more.
Questions Please contact Jessica Spears at jspears@southern. edu with any questions or to request a custom reading list or research guide.
