The ACTS Library Council members' combined library collections comprise over 1.7 million volumes of books, about 5,000 currently received periodicals, electronic media equipment, and modern language laboratory facilities. Students and faculty of the Library Council member schools have borrowing privileges at all of the libraries but must abide by the circulation policies of each library. These users may also request at their local library material from other member libraries which will be sent through the courier service of the Council. The courier's schedule is three times a week during fall, winter, and spring quarters and twice a week during quarter breaks and most of the summer.
Most libraries levy fines for overdue, damaged, and lost library materials.
All ACTS libraries have connections as well to the Internet and the World Wide Web. The ACTS Library Council recognizes both its responsibility to share the richness of its combined theological resources and the benefits of networking in the face of financial limitations. Therefore, the Library Council commits itself to collaborative collection development and to cooperative organization of and access to resources for theological education. The Library Council by systematic planning identifies and coordinates the acquisition of resources in selecting religious traditions not represented by the member schools. The Library Council seeks ways to provide access to those materials not collected by the member libraries.
