Books

• For expediency, check your local library system first, then search the Pace Catalog. NOTE: the Pace Catalog tells you what print books are in the four Pace library locations, and it tells you what e-books you can access from anywhere.
• Pace books (except Law Library) can be requested for one month loan period with two renewals if needed; when requesting you must indicate your course or program.  We will mail the book to you. Contact Nadine MacDonald to request a book.
• NOTE: if you're within 50 miles of Pleasantville or New York City campuses or if you have any in-person classes on campus then you're to pick up the book at the campus closest to you. Any Pace book mailed out to you must be insured for $100 upon mailing it back to Pace.
• For all other non-Pace books and books not available in your local library system, search Worldcat and request through your local library Interlibrary Loan system.

Articles

• To search for articles, access the Pace Library databases. From off-campus, you will be asked to login with your Pace username and password.
• When articles are not immediately available in full-text, use the "Search for Item" button to determine if we have the article in one of our other databases. If we do, a link will take you to the article. This video demonstrates the "Search for Item" service: http://youtu.be/Ip593N84WWg
• If we do not have an article in one of our databases, you can request it through ILLiad (Interlibrary Loan). You must have a Pace Library Barcode number to register to use ILLiad. (See above.)
