Welcome
Welcome to the Yale Divinity Library Projects and Guides portal. We created this website as a repository for information and content that has not (yet) transferred to a more permanent Yale Library website. It includes digitized archival materials, research guides, and historical resources related to world Christianity, mission history, and theological scholarship.
