E-resources

NYU Libraries already has one of the largest collections of e-resources for research and we’re rapidly expanding! Find materials using the search bar on the library homepage.

In addition to long-standing collections available in Ebook Central we expanded access this week by adding the EBSCO ebook collection on a trial basis. Check out the EBSCO ebook collection and let us know if it’s a resource you find useful.

You can also browse our databases.

You asked, we answered!

We heard your requests! Many of you who’ve borrowed materials from Dibner and Bobst (including the Avery Fisher Center and the Computer Center) don’t plan to be back on campus til Fall Semester, so you want to extend your due date beyond May 22nd. Works for us! You can renew your borrowed items through Tuesday, September 8, 2020.

Do you have stuff in a locker or Moby at Bobst?

Today (Sunday, 3/22) is the last day you can go get it; Bobst’s doors are open for you between 9am and 6pm. Bring your NYU ID! If you can’t get to Bobst, don’t worry. We’re extending locker rentals at no charge until September 8.
