Christiansen Memorial Library
The mission of the Christiansen Memorial Library is to provide services and resources for all LBS students and faculty to support the academic program and curriculum of the Lutheran Brethren Seminary.
The Lutheran Bible School Library or Bible- Seminary Library was formerly housed on the main floor of the Hillcrest building and was combined with the high school library. It was moved to the present location in the 1970s. In 1990 the library was named for Reverend C. Christiansen (1902-1982), a former librarian and seminary professor for many years at Lutheran Brethren Schools.
We are located in the Broen Media Center and are open Monday through Friday from 8:00-5:00 with the librarian in her office from 8:30-12:30. Our collection contains over 20,000 volumes on the circulation and reference shelves, over 100 journals, periodicals, and newsletters, as well as a collection of cassettes, videos, CDs and DVDs.
