Important notice regarding library closure and relocation: The HS-SS Library building closed in April. Please pick up all Firestone Library books and Interlibrary Loan books from B Building, room B101.  All books, including Princeton University Library books may be returned to B101. We return Princeton books on Thursdays.

Requests for the Historical Studies-Social Science Library's collection may be made via our webform for the HS-SS Library (McBride Hall) Courier Service. We are currently able to pull books that had been on the lower level of the library, parts of the collection that are shelved on the first floor may be difficult until National Library Relocations have finished their work. Our monograph collections are being relocated to McBride Hall on the Educational Testing Service campus. You are also welcome to use McBride for your work. Please contact a staff member for more information on the shuttle and access.
