ACCESS

Exciting new services for ACCESS cardholders...

Coming Soon! Pre-register online to apply for an ACCESS card.


ACCESS cardholders can already...

Log in to My CATNYP, a personalized version of CATNYP, the Research Libraries' online catalog.

  • Save your favorite searches to run them again.
  • Receive CATNYP email alerts when new materials arrive at the Library that match your favorite searches.
  • Update your e-mail address so the Library can stay in touch.

ACCESS cardholders can also:

  • Use their card in the Branch Libraries to borrow books and dvds, place holds, and check out ebooks.
  • Use selected electronic resources outside the Library walls. Visit http://www.nypl.org/databases/.
  • Make advance computer reservations at selected library locations.

To take advantage of these services, you will need to know your full 14-digit card number.
