  • 12 Part 1 Residental Colleges of the University
    The Residential Colleges of the University 1997 The establishment of residential colleges was envisaged from the foundation of the University and their affiliation was expressly provided for in the original Act of Incorporation. The Government set aside sites for the purpose within the area generally reserved for the University. The first of the colleges, Trinity (an Anglican foundation of 1870), was opened in 1872. The first Warden of Trinity, Alexander Leeper, quickly built up a comprehensive system of college teaching. This was adopted by other colleges on their foundation, and remains a distinguishing feature of the Melbourne collegiate system. So too, do the large enrolment of non-resident students and the provision of significant college libraries, now supplemented by computer installations. The college tutorial system (in which International House and Medley Hall also participate) is in general supplementary to teaching offered by the University's faculties, and is organized in part on an intercollegiate basis. Formal links with the University on academic matters are maintained through a Joint Committee of the Academic Board and the Heads of Colleges, and under a Statute of the University (S5.1.2), "any teacher in an affiliated institution" may be appointed to membership of a faculty. Heads of colleges sit in rotation as co-opted members of the University Council, and play a considerable part in the committee work of the University. The other three colleges for which sites had been originally reserved were established as follows: Ormond (Presbyterian foundation, 1870), opened 1881; Queen's (Methodist foundation, 1887), opened 1888; Newman (Roman Catholic foundation, 1916), opened 1918.

  • Theological Libraries in Australia and New Zealand
    C H A P T E R 4 Theological Libraries in Australia and New Zealand KERRIE BURN Introduction This chapter will outline the history and current state of theological librarianship in Australia and New Zealand. The earliest theological libraries in both countries were often the private library collections of individual clerics. Over time, the development of theological libraries tended to be aligned with the development of theological teaching institutions. These were often denominationally-based and/or associated with seminaries or the formation houses of particular religious orders. The establishment of consortial arrangements between these theological teaching institutions has also been a feature of the theological education landscape. These have provided economies of scale, opportunities for collaboration, and access for members to an increased range of library resources. In the region, significant theological library collections are also located in the state and national libraries, and at some of the larger universities which have theology or religious studies departments. In addition to discussing the development of theological libraries, this chapter will include an overview of options for generalist librarianship education, outline the roles and status of the peak professional library associations in both countries (ALIA and LIANZA), and detail the professional development opportunities for those working in Australasian theological libraries. Integral to the work of theological libraries in this region is the Australian and New Zealand Theological Library Association (ANZTLA) and this 41 chapter will elaborate on some of the historical achievements and current activities of the Association. Theological Libraries—History and Development The development of theological libraries and theological education in Australia and New Zealand do not have identical histories but they do share many similarities.
