I had at the beginning of the spring term (Hilary) described my first term's experiences with the University libraries, including a summary per library of books borrowed or requested from stacks. Here's an update.
- Theology 6
- Harris Manchester College 3
- Social Sciences 2
- Social and Cultural Anthropology 4
- Bodleian (ref. only) 2
- Philosophy 1
- History Faculty 4
- St. Cross 1
- Balfour 2
- Radcliffe Science 1
- Indian Institute: 3
- Rothermere American Institute (ref. only): 1
- Islamic Studies (ref. only): 1
(includes additional items from reference libraries)
Totals for two terms
- Social and Cultural Anthropology 18
- Theology 11
- Social Sciences 9
- Harris Manchester College 6
- Bodleian 5 (may be more - can't remember!)
- Oriental Institute 5

- Indian Institute: 3
- Radcliffe Science 3
- Philosophy 1

I think it gives quite some indication as to the undertaking for anyone who would teach or even set up a religious studies subject area!
