As a hub for learning, the theological library facilitates the resourcing and delivery of academic material on campus.

Fundamental to this discussion are 1) the challenges and opportunities for information literacy in light of student AI usage and 2) library and institutional policies that will guide students to be information literate in an ethical and responsible fashion.
