It includes collections of Herman Dooyeweerd, M.C. Smit, and Bernard Zylstra.
There are Dutch materials, dissertations from the Free University in Amsterdam,
student theses and papers, and faculty works. The library subscribes to specialised

A new collection on Faith & Learning has recently been established. This collection
is focussed on materials which explore the relationship of Christian faith and
intellectual scholarship.
