Instructional - Guide to the Booher Library for Southwest Students: Home

You may have noticed the Booher Library is under construction. We have a temporary space set up just up the street known as the Deanery at 509 Rathervue Place.

An important note to APTS and SSW students, faculty, and staff: The Deanery is available to you during "open" and "restricted" hours. During "restricted" hours, please ring the doorbell for access and be prepared to show your school ID. The door is locked during "restricted" hours for the safety of the library's staff and users. 

APTS = Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary

SSW = Seminary of the Southwest

We will retrieve items for you from the Deanery shelves and the APTS library. Use the library's discovery tool, Seeker, to search for items. Once you find what you need, use this form to submit your request. Don't see what you need? Write us at library@ssw.edu and describe what you are looking for.
