Library
In 2007, AMBS completed a new building to house the library and bookstore. This building was the first theological library registered with the United States Green Building Council for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification. The building received a LEED Gold rating in 2009.
The library collection includes approximately 115,000 books and more than 500 journal subscriptions, forming one of the most comprehensive collections of Anabaptist materials for theological study and ministry preparation.

Howbeit eluding fallopian diagnosis,
