Rutherford House Library Goes to Highland Theological College
Highland Theological College (HTC) of Dingwall, Scotland, is very privileged to have received the library of Rutherford House, the Centre for Theological Study and Research, which was established in 1983 by the Scottish Evangelical Research Trust.
The Rutherford House Trustees are selling their property in Edinburgh and have donated their library to HTC. This consists of about 15,000 volumes in total, including 1,500 journals. There are many important titles and journal runs in the collection.
Two of the existing special collections in the HTC library are the theological section of the Fort Augustus Benedictine Monastery Library and elements of the William Temple Collection from the John Rylands Library in the University of Manchester. The provision of the Rutherford House collection will significantly enhance the HTC collection and bring the total of the volumes in the library to about 65,000.
