Using the Manhattanville College Library

Purchase College librarians have worked closely with the librarians at Manhattanville to arrange for reciprocal borrowing.  That means that you can walk into the Manhattanville College Library and take out a book-whenever you like using a current and valid Purchase College ID.  You can also use their periodicals and their computers if need be (though it is understood that Manhattanville students take first priority if it is busy).

NOTE:  It is often a good idea to call Circulation 323-5275 ahead before going to the Manhattanville College Library, especially at night.  You should also be sure to have two ids (one being your Purchase College id) with you at all times as the campus is secure.

To determine if Manhattanville has materials you need, you'll have to check their periodical holdings.  See: http://www.mville.edu/library/periodicals/index.htm 

If you have any questions about the material you seek, contact the Manhattanville Reference desk at 914-323-5282.
