As the field of theological and religious studies librarianship changes and grows, so do the associations that serve us. Join representatives from Atla, Association of British Theological and Philosophical Libraries, Australia and New Zealand Theological Library Association, Bibliothèques Europeennes de Theologie, and Forum for Asian Theological Librarians for an engaging conversation that looks into their respective associations, the challenges facing the members they serve, and the potential opportunities for collaboration to benefit theology and religious studies librarians across the globe.
