Q. Where can I find sources related to the decision to ordain women in the Lutheran Church -- both ALC and LCA?

The library has a file folder of pamphlets and other unpublished documents on this topic ("Ordination of Women") located in a file cabinet in the Reading Room.  For books on this topic, applicable subject headings are WOMEN CLERGY -- UNITED STATES -- HISTORY and ORDINATION OF WOMEN -- LUTHERAN CHURCH.
