Dear Friends

I am pleased to announce that the Global Digital Library for Theology and Ecumenism was launched on 23 September. This is a project of the World Council of Churches and Global Ethics net. The library provides its members with free access to a large and growing number of theological resources (journal articles, books and dissertations) in diverse languages, including some which are only otherwise available by subscription. It also provides the opportunity for scholars to make their work available to others, institutions to make their resources available globally  and provides opportunities for combined research with colleagues around the globe.  Those who want to use it are required to register as individuals, there is however no membership fee. As the World Methodist Council representative on the project consortium I would encourage you, your institutions, colleagues and students to use and support this initiative.  You can access it at http://www.globethics.net/web/gtl

Kind regards

Dr David N. Field,
