Our Digital Theological Library offers students unparalleled access to online resources for their research needs. To offset the costs of this library access, all students pay a Textbook & Resource Access fee.

*While students have the benefit of accessing their textbooks online through the Digital Theological Library, they will not have access to the Digital Theological Library upon graduation. Therefore, we encourage students to purchase select textbooks to build their personal library. For your convenience, Horizon has partnered with Kennedy’s Parable to provide textbooks.
