The Dalton McCaughey Library works to support the educational objectives of our owners, the Society of Jesus and the Uniting Church in Australia, Synod of Victoria and Tasmania; and, in so doing, serves the students and staff of the United Faculty of Theology, the Melbourne College of Divinity, and the Centre for Theology and Ministry.
Until the beginning of 2007 when we moved from Ormond College within The University of Melbourne to new premises in Morrison Close Parkville, we were named the Joint Theological Library. We took our new name to honour the contributions to our foundation of Rev. William Dalton SJ, and Dr Davis McCaughey who were, respectively, Rector of the Jesuit Theological College and Master of Ormond College in the early 1970s, when the library formed.
