Find materials at a library near to you!

No matter where or how you attend SUNY New Paltz, Sojourner Truth Library is committed to providing you with outstanding resources, including article delivery and electronic journals access. However, there may be times when a book or another resource may be close to where you're studying--at a local public or college library.

Local libraries are frequently excellent resources of local history, newspaper and magazine collections, and multimedia. They are also quiet places to study, browse for ideas and much more. Use these tools to locate a library in your community and to search their catalogs for important resources.

NOTE: Individual libraries each have their own service policies e.g., how to check out materials and access resources. It's always best to call ahead to find out a library's visitor privileges.
