While in Washington, DC, you will have access to a vast array of libraries and archives, as well as research facilities at international agencies, trade associations, and service organizations. We have special arrangements with a number of these libraries to support your research and teaching.
Washington Research Library Consortium
Your GOCard provides you entrance to the libraries of American University, Catholic University, Gallaudet University, George Mason University, George Washington University, Marymount University, University of the District of Columbia, and Trinity University. You may borrow books in person or have them delivered to the campus of your choice via the consortium loan service. Books are typically delivered in two business days. Copies of articles are delivered online to your desktop.
The Chesapeake Information and Research Library Alliance
Use of the libraries plus in-person borrowing for faculty and graduate students is available from Howard University, Johns Hopkins University, National Agricultural Library, Smithsonian Institution, University of Delaware, and the University of Maryland.
Georgetown University-Library of Congress Connection
The Library of Congress, with 142 million items in 21 separate reading rooms, is one of the world’s great research collections. LC welcomes public use of its general reference facilities, but it can be bewildering because of its size and complexity. The Georgetown University-Library of Congress Connection streamlines access for Georgetown University’s faculty and students to LC’s collections and services as a supplement to Georgetown University Library’s resources. Just fill out the GU-LC Connection form to initiate a research consultation with a curator at LC; schedule an orientation for yourself or your class; or check availability of a conference room where a class could make use of materials from the LC collections.
