Claremont School of Theology: Home

Advanced Search

The DTL is an all-digital library of resources for theological and religious studies. It contains thousands of digital books, articles, and other materials, and is always growing. CST students, faculty, and staff have access to the DTL using their CST ID numbers.

Search the DTL by going to thedtl.org or thedtl.on.worldcat.org. Bookmark one of these links--they connect to the same catalog.

Before you can access resources through the DTL, you will be redirected to a login page. Choose "Claremont School of Theology" from the dropdown menu, and input your CST ID number (see the image below).

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, we encourage you to contact ATLA member libraries before requesting privileges. Many institutions are limiting physical access to their libraries.
