Brandeis Library Joins SHARES Reciprocal Onsite Borrowing Pilot Program

The Brandeis Library is excited to announce the launch of the SHARES Reciprocal Onsite Borrowing Pilot Program.

As a member of this program, Brandeis graduate students, faculty, staff and sponsored undergraduates who demonstrate a research need can visit and borrow materials from the seven institutions participating in the pilot.

Participating Universities

  • Brandeis University
  • Cornell University
  • Northwestern University
  • Syracuse University
  • Temple University
  • University of California Los Angeles
  • Washington University in St. Louis

To visit a SHARES library, simply present your Brandeis ID to any of the SHARES libraries to gain building access. Some restrictions apply; check the complete list of SHARES institutions and their local policies.

Brandeis Library is regularly looking for ways to expand our users’ access to materials not owned by Brandeis Library through forming partnerships with other institutions. The SHARES Reciprocal Borrowing Program is just one of many programs offered. The Brandeis Library is a member of the Boston Library Consortium, which supports cost-effective and efficient sharing of print, electronic, and digital content across the 18-member research libraries in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New Hampshire.

More information on the SHARES Program is available on our website.
