We have sad news, and we have happy news.

Sad

Our library cupboards are mostly bare. The books from our open stacks are all gone...for now.


PSs I'm going to miss you most of all!

Most of our collection has gone to storage, and will not be accessible until the library reopens in its home in the Teaching & Learning Center in three or so years.
 

Happy

Approximately 18,000 volumes, a tenth of our collection, are now available in Milstein rooms 406, 406A, and 409 in Butler Library. All you need to enter and borrow Barnard books is your Barnard ID. (Note: Barnard affiliates who do not currently have Columbia University borrowing privileges will only be able to borrow Barnard books.)

Note

You can still borrow course reserves, media equipment, media materials, and zines, as well as pick up BorrowDirect and Offsite requests from the Barnard Library in its present location.
