Physical materials in Trinity's Collection & beyond

All of Trinity's physical collections (books, audio, video, maps, etc.) are searchable in OneSearch. The collection is shelved by Library of Congress call number; there are floor maps available on our web site and on each floor of the building. 

If you believe Trinity should own a book that is not in our collection, please submit a purchase request. All other titles may be borrowed from other libraries, including Boston Library Consortium institutions, through Interlibrary Loan. 

To discover and request materials from libraries worldwide, please search Worldcat

Ebooks and streaming video

OneSearch contains records for most of our ebook and streaming video titles. Click the "Available online" link for further information on where to access titles. Note that some titles are available from multiple ebook platforms, and each platform may have different restrictions on downloads and usage terms. 

Also note that ebook access is selective among different publishers. For example, we subscribe to a large number of Cambridge University press ebooks, but not all of them. If there is an ebook you feel we should have, please submit a purchase request
