  • Microfilm and fiche
  • Musical Scores
  • Books and media obtained through ILL – these should be returned to the Interlibrary Loan Office in 307 Butler
  • Material borrowed from:  Law, Teachers College or Jewish Theological Seminary, which have separate library circulation systems.

Your library account will display items borrowed from most Columbia Libraries and Borrow Direct.  Items borrowed through ILL or from  Law, Teacher’s College and Jewish Theological Seminary will display through those accounts.
