Lending Library: Directories & Guides

Museumwise provides its members and South Central DHP constituents access to our extensive Lending Library. Museumwise members and South Central DHP constituents can borrow up to 3 titles for a 3-week period. Books can be renewed once, as long as there are no other requests for the title.

To utilize this service, simply fill out this online form with the titles of the books you’d like to borrow. We will mail you the titles – all that you are responsible for is return postage.

This Lending Library is made possible in part with funds from the Documentary Heritage Program of the New York State Archives, a program of the New York State Education Department.
