Finding a Book

FIRST

The MassArt Library Catalog - FLO contains the collections of our library as well as those of the other eight nearby FLO Libraries listed below. You can borrow from those libraries by visiting them or by requesting online that they send items for you to our library.

SECOND

If you can not find a book in our catalog, then you should try the database WorldCat. WorldCat is an international database that contains most public and academic library holdings. When you search this database you will see who in the world owns a particular book. If you find a book here, then you can ask the Reference Desk for advice on whether to go directly to the Library to check out the book or to request it through the Interlibrary Library Loan (ILL) process.

THIRD

You can also go directly to a library's website and search that library catalog. Here are some Art Libraries you may find helpful and some Boston Area Libraries links you may find easy to get to when looking for a book.

As always, please stop by the Reference Desk (617)879-7101 or Circulation Desk (617)879-7150 to ask for help in locating a book or journal.
