The online collections are always open. E-books, magazines, streaming films, scholarly articles and high-quality digital images are still available from wherever at any time of day. To get started using the online resources, check out the Online Resources and Services guide.

We provide access to almost 200,000 ebooks across a broad range of subjects through our subscriptions to Ebook Central Academic Complete, the ACLS Humanities ebook collection, Library Stack, and Art & Architecture Source.

Our streaming film collections from Academic Video Online, Electronic Arts Intermix, Kanopy, and Swank offer a mix of feature films, documentaries, art-house classics, television and news programs, and experimental and video art.

For digital magazines, our Flipster and Exact Editions subscriptions provide complete digital versions for 40 titles, including Aperture, Artforum International, Communication Arts, Creative Review, The New Yorker, and more.

Or, if you’re looking for images, we’ve got you covered for art history, museum exhibitions, advertising, stock photos and illustrations and fashion photography.

We’re looking forward to seeing you in the fall. Please stop by and ask a librarian any of your questions, or contact us using email or chat via the Ask a Librarian service.

Please note that in order to prioritize our spaces for current students and faculty and to maintain a safe environment, access by alumni and Continuing Education students will be paused for the fall semester. Stay up to date on reopening developments at sva.edu.
