Can I borrow from public libraries?
Answer
Please do! On the Boston campus, the Chinatown branch is one block away, and the central branch at Copley is two T stops away. Public libraries have their own policies, so visit their websites and talk to their librarians if you have any questions. Many of them offer online resources and other services as well.
If you are on the Boston campus, you can have books from Massachusetts public libraries sent to us for pick up and check out using the Commonwealth Catalog (ComCat). Instructions for using Commonwealth Catalog are included in our guide on Interlibrary Loan.
