Life at Ridley: Library Facilities
Members of Ridley Hall have access to superb learning resources. Only a ten minute walk to the north is the University Library, with one of the greatest collections of books, periodicals and manuscripts in the world. Tyndale House, one of the finest biblical research libraries with over 30,000 books and numerous computer research tools, is a similar distance to the west of us. The University's Faculty of Divinity Library with over 50,000 monographs is almost across the street from Ridley!
Ridley's own library specializes in biblical resources, and consists of more than 16,000 volumes. College members also have access to the libraries of the other Federation institutions, including Westcott House (17,000 books), Wesley House (18,000 books) and Westminster College (27,000 books).
The online catalogues for these and the many other college and departmental libraries in Cambridge may be accessed through the web.
There are computing facilities in the library for general use, including software for word-processing, internet browsing, email, and bible study.
