Books Beyond NYU

EZBorrow
This service allows NYU users to search the combined catalogs of more than 50 research and academic libraries, and request books not available at NYU. Books requested are delivered to Bobst Library within 3 to 5 business days.
Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a service through which eligible library users can obtain materials (books, articles, and more) from other libraries. Delivery turnaround time can vary. If you're in a rush, request just the chapter you need instead of the entire book. There is a one-chapter limit.
