Services for alumni

Due to the collaboration of Webster University's Library and Eden Theological Seminary's Luhr Library, Webster alumni may enjoy alumni library services at either library.

Use of the Libraries' facilities

Alumni are welcome to walk in and enjoy many of the facilities at either library. Please note that current Webster/Eden students, faculty, and staff have priority in the use of available computers, study and listening/viewing rooms.

Free library cards are available to Webster graduates for use at Emerson Library and also at Eden Theological Seminary's Library.

What you can borrow...

Access to electronic resources

Alumni can be logged in to most electronic resources such as online periodical databases when visiting on campus at the Library or when visiting Eden Theological Seminary's Library. Due to contractual agreements, off-campus access to online databases is not available unless you are a member of the Research Fellows Program.
