The David Allan Hubbard Library continues to be committed to our students and faculty during this unprecedented time. Many concerns were addressed during the SOT/SIS Town Hall about the library and access to necessary resources. While nothing can replace the experience of physical access to the library and our geophysical resources, we are all learning how to adapt due to this global pandemic. Our services continue to develop, however, we realize for many they will look different in comparison to your academic pursuits prior to COVID-19. 

As the library evolves its services and offerings in a safe manner to protect students and staff, we are grateful for your patience and flexibility. The Hubbard Library and Fuller Theological Seminary is limited by local and state guidelines and our commitment to the safety of the Fuller community. 

We are working hard to keep up with requests for our online services and are dedicated to doing so until the library can reopen safely. At the end of this post is a list of our online and distance resources the Hubbard Library offers our current students, faculty, and staff. We also highly encourage those to utilize our online tutorials and contact our reference librarians for additional help. General inquiries can also be sent to lib-info@fuller.edu, and you will be directed to the appropriate person. 

Thank you all for your patience and grace while we reimagine our services to our patrons. 

Sincerely,

Daniell Whittington
Executive Director of the Library
