Heythrop Library
The Heythrop Library is a philosophy and theological library in London, England. The library was part of University of London when it functioned as the now closed Heythrop College library. The library still operates independently of the closed college. Since 2018, the library is an affiliated library of the Senate House Library, which means that it shares the library management system and database with the bigger library. The library has been serving the Jesuit community in the United Kingdom, with The Telegraph calling it "one of the oldest and most important libraries of theological and philosophical books in the UK".. Since 2019, its reading room has been housed at the London Jesuit Centre, Mount Street, Mayfair, London and other materials through Senate House Library.The library is open to "anyone with a serious interest in theology or philosophy and the related academic disciplines represented in the collection", with different membership options available (from "free" to an annual charge). Current HE students, Jesuits and other Religious, as well as those unemployed or on low wages might be able to benefit from free membership. The Library continues to provide historic as well as most-current research, in print, to those in training for ministry in the Catholic and other Christian churches and of the wider academic community. It also supports those engaged in programmes at the London Jesuit Centre.The library is a member of ABTAPL (the Association of British Theological and Philosophical Libraries).
