CUNY+PLUS is the online catalog for the Hostos Community College Library. It provides detailed information on Library materials such as books, periodicals, and audio-visual materials. Search CUNY+PLUS to determine if Hostos Community College Library owns a particular title. If so, CUNY+PLUS will tell you whether that title is currently available (not checked out) and where in the Library it will be located.

CUNY+PLUS (CUNY UNION CATALOG) is the online catalog for all libraries of The City University of New York as well. As a student or faculty member of Hostos Community College, and by extension, The City University of New York, you are eligible for borrowing privileges at (most) other CUNY libraries. See The City University of New York Library Services home page on Access and Borrowing Privileges at CUNY for further information.

Need a book that is checked out at your home library? Use CLICS (CUNY Libraries Inter-Campus Services): a new book delivery service that lets you request a book from any CUNY library to be delivered to you for pick up at any other CUNY library! Read instructions on using CLICS.

Hostos Libary is a member of the New York Metropolitan Reference and Research Library Agency(METRO). The Hostos Library issues METRO Referral Cards, enabling readers to be referred to other METRO member libraries for use of a specific title or resources not available at Hostos, other CUNY Libraries or the New York Public Library and to refer our users for research in a particular subject. The courtesy card cannot be issued for general use or because it is most convenient for the patron to use the visiting library, nor does it confer borrowing privileges. Check at the reference desk for further information.
