One of the great privileges of living, working, or studying in New York City is that are entitled to a New York Public Library card. With it, you can maintain your New York City connection anywhere in the world, checking out online books and accessing digital collections. There is a different procedure for registering to use the research room; check the New York Public Library website for guidance.
Brooklyn and Queens residents may also wish to acquire library cards for their borough libraries.
Students often ask about visiting area college and university libraries. This privilege is usually extended when students must consult materials that cannot be borrowed via inter-library loan. Please stop by the Reference Desk to inquire.
