"poorly documented Web entries"
LOL! How many Watchtower articles that quote "an expert" or some other poorly-documented source have we all seen?
"the Writting Department follows the pattern of "tracing all things with accuracy"
Like the Ephraim Stern quote in the recent Awake! article? Riiiight.
Did Stephen Lett "follow the pattern of tracing all things with accuracy" when he decided to borrow his illustration from an evangelist who calls Witnesses "false teachers" and "unchristian"?
Silly Governing Body. They should hang out on sites like this one if they want to REALLY learn the truth about their own religion.
the GB really has no clue how small the world has become. They talk of their "University Library connection" as if it's so exclusive.
5 million books and yet the writing department doesn't know how to use an index. If they did I am sure they would have discovered 607 is rubbish by now. Doesn't matter how many books you have access to if you never read them.
Hmm, must be nice to say you are your own expert.
That would be like saying, "I'm the best cook in the world, I use the best ingredients known to man and my food tastes better than anyone else's" while forgetting to mention you only started cooking yesterday, you've never tried anything else, never gone anywhere else, only shop at one limited store and anyone choking down your food isn't allowed to complain.
I did some math... unless they're referring to books in pdf format, that university library with 5,000,000 books would have to contain well over 92 miles of book shelfs... that's just not possible... their BS knows no boundaries!
Bloody cheek of them.

Wonder how many books the UN library has....I'm sure the WTS knows
I have just watched a utube clip of an assembly talk explaining the overlapping generation teaching. All I can say to that is yummie really good piece of cookery so well prepared please sir can I have some more ?
@Alfred, but usually bookshelves are 6-10 shelves high. So that would be 9 miles of books which is fairly doable if you consider that not only do they stack on top but they also have several rows, so 20-30 rows of books cuts this down to .3 miles.
The place I work has 3M items in their biggest library alone and they have 5 libraries + access to online papers, books, datasets etc. 5M items is indeed par for the course in a large library which you would find at least a couple of those in NYC, University libraries easily have several million items and you can usually use inter-library loan programs to get any book you want from anywhere in the world. Library of Congress has 32M items.
NYU has approximately 5M items in their library (4.5M according to their website) so they may be referring to that.
Items (which is what Libraries use to quanitfy their Library) do not necessarily mean books. They are documents, letters, pictures etc.
