Erhard Gallos, a Ph.D. graduate assistant, has helped the Center for over a year with the acquisition of books identical or similar to those in Ellen White’s personal and office library.

The Center is grateful to Terry Robertson, Seminary Librarian, and the Seminary Library Committee for providing annual funding to acquire these rare books.

Ellen White’s original library contained approximately 900 volumes. The Center has been adding between 50 and 100 volumes a year to its holdings. You can view the library in six newly installed glass-doored bookcases in the Center’s Reading Room.

We thank our friends for providing the funding for the bookcases that enhance the patron research experience. The walls of the Reading Room have also been repainted a more attractive matching color and the decor has been updated. The Ellen White library project began in 2004 with the help of then seminary student assistant Doug Kincaid.
