  • Earlier heading: New York (City). Union Theological Seminary. Library.

Ltr. fr. J. Cox, 3-4-88 (in Apr. 1983 the formal name of the Library of Union Theological Seminary in New York City became the Burke Library of Union Theological Seminary in New York City)

Email from Library, May 4, 2020 (authoritative name of the Burke is: The Burke Library at Union Theological Seminary. The form "Burke Library (Union Theological Seminary)" is not preferred because it gives the incorrect sense that the Burke is institutionally still part of UTS; it is physically located on the UTS campus but institutionally part of Columbia's libraries; the "at" has become the standard way of communicating that relationship)
