Access to the Collection

Access to the collection is through an online catalog which is connected to, but also independent of, BRIDGE, the catalog for St. Olaf College and Carleton College libraries. All catalogued titles held by the Kierkegaard Library are also part of the OCLC international bibliographic database. Patrons may select from the pull down menu "Kierkegaard Library." The search will result in Kierkegaad Library holdings only.)

Specialized classification and subject headings have been used when appropriate in certain parts of the collection.

Access to periodical articles and newspaper articles is available on BRIDGE for articles added after 1998. Card files with author/title and some subjects provide access for all other periodical and newspaper articles. (The Archives does not yet have electronic or card indexes available to its contents. Consult with Cynthia Lund concerning content and access. )
