Biography

Connor L. Flatz, a native of Long Island, NY, arrived at the St. Joseph’s Seminary in late August (2016) to assume the position of Library Director. He holds a Masters in Library and Information Science from Long Island University (2009), with a focus on academic libraries (2009), a Masters in Modern European History from Fordham University (2009), and Bachelors in Medieval Studies from Fordham University (2007). He worked at Fordham University in the Bronx, NY as a reference librarian for a year. He worked at the Seminary of the Immaculate Conception in Huntington, NY as an associate librarian for over four years. While working at the seminary, he also worked part-time as the head librarian at the Cathedral Seminary House of Formation for three years.

He offers introductory library sessions to the new St. Joseph’s Seminary student each fall semester, which provides an overview of the library layout, resources, and services available to them during their studies.  To supplement these sessions, he offers one-on-one Zoom reference sessions to help the students with their library research, resource, and technical questions. He continually works to improve the quality of the library’s electronic and print collections to provide the students access to the most relevant resources for their studies. His most recent additions to the library’s collection are the Hermeneia Biblical Commentary eBook collection and the ProQuest Religion and Philosophy eBook collection. He looks forward to working with you during your studies at the seminary.
