THE STM LIBRARY

The Library is an integral part of the ministry of STM, providing the necessary support facilities for theological education and research. In line with STM's mission and objectives, the Library aims to provide relevant resources, facilities and services to meet the academic and ministry needs of the STM community, as well as the wider Church body. We also aim to serve as a research centre on church and mission history in Malaysia.

The Library currently holds over 30,000 titles in the various collections, and receives about 200 journals and periodicals. We also have a reasonable collection of multimedia and audiovisual materials, as well as microfiche. Our archives contain works on Malaysian church history and we are very keen to acquire additional materials to further expand our collection.

To keep up with advances in information technology and knowledge management, the catalogue and library management system were fully automated in 2000 and Internet research facilities have been made available.

As STM continues to develop and expand its community and programmes, the Library plans to similarly develop and expand by increasing its holdings and improving its facilities in order to offer up-to-date resources as well as a conducive environment for research.
