The home library for SPS is the Newman Library at Baruch College. The Newman Library provides students with an easy, quick way of accessing computer-based library materials through its internet-based resources. These include electronic research databases and an E-Reserve system where professors can post class related content.

For additional information about the services provided by the Newman Library to students of the CUNY School of Professional Studies, visit http://newman.baruch.cuny.edu/services/sps.html.

Students' Newman Library username and passwords are mailed to their SPS email accounts upon enrollment into the program. They will need this information to access the online library resources.

In addition to the Newman Library, students of the CUNY School of Professional Studies with a valid SPS ID have access to the 20 libraries of The City University of New York system. To enter any of the libraries, including Newman Library, students must present their SPS ID Card along with a valid picture ID.
