The designated Library for SPS is the Baruch College Newman Library.

CUNY School of Professional Studies students, faculty, and staff obtain a CUNY SPS photo ID for borrowing privileges (8 weeks for most materials) from all CUNY libraries except the CUNY School of Law.  SPS affiliates must obtain a CUNY photo ID from the SPS Office of Security and Public Safety (646-664-8600).

SPS affiliates may access the CUNY-wide databases from off-campus using their CUNY Login to authenticate. SPS affiliates do not have interlibrary loan privileges at the Graduate Center Library.
