We asked them about what sources they use to obtain information for ministry purposes, in addition to the genres of periodicals and books they read. We found that elite clergy access the internet more so than the general population. Even in this sample of elite clergy, we found some residual racial and gender differences in information source use and reading patterns. Nonwhite elite clergy access information through television news more so than whites, while female elite clergy access a wider array of information sources than males. Nonwhite and female respondents read from fewer genres of books and periodicals but varied in the composition of their reading habits compared to their white and male counterparts. Suggestions for further research follow.
