The New York Public Library's Research Catalog contains millions of items from The New York Public Library's Stephen A. Schwarzman Building, Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, and The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, plus materials from shared collections at Columbia University, Harvard University, and Princeton University. This User Guide to the Research Catalog will help you discover and access the vast research collections available at the New York Public Library. In this guide, you'll find information on searching the catalog to find research materials of interest, requesting these materials for use at our Research Libraries, and managing your library account online. You can also log into your library account to view and manage your requests and checkouts. NYPL offers a number of other online tools to support your research.

For access to these tools, see the quick links below, and visit the Research homepage for more. If you can’t find an item in the library’s catalog, NYPL provides an Interlibrary Loan Service (ILL) for materials held at libraries outside the NYPL system. In addition to Interlibrary Loan, METRO referrals provide courtesy access to many academic, school, public, and special libraries throughout New York City and Westchester County. If you aren’t sure where to start or which service will be best for you, contact the Library’s virtual reference service, ASK NYPL. See NYPL Recommended Books for Bestsellers, Award-winning Books, NYPL Staff Picks, and more. Try The New York Public Library's Discovery tool—now in beta—to search for items available for use in our research centers.

Be sure to request materials in advance to make the most of your time on site. Discover our world-renowned research collections, featuring more than 46 million items. Access items, one-on-one reference help, and dedicated research study rooms. Learn about the subject and media specializations of our research divisions. Plan your in-person research visit and discover resources for scholars and writers. Most items in the Research Catalog have a button that says "Request for onsite use." This button is the virtual equivalent to a paper call slip.

If you do not request an item that has a "Request for onsite use" button in advance, you will have to wait for the item to be delivered. Click the "Request for onsite use" button to see the list of locations where you can access your chosen item. Most offsite materials from the shared collections can be sent to the Research Center of your choice (either the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building, the Library for the Performing Arts, or the Schomburg Center). Materials that are stored in a particular Research Center must be used at that center, and some materials may be additionally restricted to a specific room. You will receive an automated email from researchrequests@nypl.org when you request is received, and another when it has been delivered to your selected location.

Items that are stored in the building are usually delivered on the day they are requested. For most offsite materials, requests made before 2:30 PM will be delivered the following business day.
