The Robert Barclay Institute has been established by Barclay College as a scholarly resource to help Quakers look at our past and engage our future. Named for Robert Barclay, a prominent Quaker apologist, the Institute calls 21st century Friends to engage in innovative thinking, creative dialogue, academic research, and scholarly writing. It seeks to bring research and dialogue to the table so that historic Quaker thought can begin to speak effectively in today’s world.
