Ministry & Learning Centre, 5 Saunders Close, Macquarie Park NSW 2113.

The Gilbert Wright Library is named to commemorate the contribution of the Rev. B. Gilbert Wright, who was Vice Principal of the College for fifteen years and Principal for ten years.  Wright was a strong supporter of the library, providing continuous funding as part of his administrative duties and reorganising the library.  This support of the library was further fostered through his experience travelling through the US to various theological colleges.  Wright would be proud to see his vision continue.

The Gilbert Wright Library is home to over 45,000 print books and access to thousands of eBooks and journals.

Our Sydney Library manager is Michelle Liu. Library staff may be contacted during opening hours; enquiries are welcome.

Heather and Noel Vose Library (Perth)

Morling Perth - Vose Campus 20 Hayman Rd, Bentley, WA 6102

 

The Heather and Noel Vose Library is named in commemoration of Drs. Noel and Heather Vose. Noel was a graduate of Morling College and was founding principal of the Baptist Theological College of Western Australia; he also served as president of the Baptist World Alliance from 1985 to 1990. Noel's wife Heather was an academic specialising in Western Australian history and a great supporter of the college and its library. It is fitting for the library to retain the Vose name and honour both Heather and Noel.

The Heather and Noel Vose library is home to over 53,000 print books and access to thousands of journals. Our collection includes a broad range of Christian perspectives as well as secular writers, with an evangelical focus and a Baptist heritage. Most of our collection may be borrowed by members.
