Question: How can I search the Archives & Special Collections?

Answer


Use the Archival Collections search site  to explore descriptions, finding aids, and digitized content held by New York University’s special collections, as well as archival material held by The New York Historical Society and the Brooklyn Historical Society.

Use the NYU Libraries' catalog to search for books, journals and other print materials, videos, sound recordings, e-books, e-journals, databases, and indexes in local libraries and special collections.
