Art & Design Research

Use our brand new @LL Search! It searches almost everything @ the Lesley Libraries, like books, journal articles, and streaming video!
We're still customizing it, so you can't limit to just one Lesley Library yet, or one Lesley collection.  For that, you can still use our classic catalog (scroll down).

When you use the Fenway Libraries Online (FLO) catalog, it searches lots of libraries, not just the 2 Lesley libraries (Moriarty and Sherrill)!

If you're looking for books about a topic, type in a keyword and it will search for that word/words within the title, subject terms, author name, summary, and contents!

If you know the title of the book you're looking for, change the "within" drop-down to Title.  Then your results won't be bogged down with books that don't have those words in the title!  You can also change it to search for an author (remember last name first)!

If you find a book that's not at a Lesley library, you can request for it to be shipped to Moriarty for you! This will take a few days, so make sure you plan ahead!  You can put a book from Sherrill on hold to be picked up in Moriarty but it's going to take a few days to get here (it gets delivered to Boston, sorted, then sent back out to us), so it's more timely to go over and grab it yourself.

1) Click Make a Request
2) Log in using either your Institution ID (front of your student ID) or your barcode (long number on the back of your ID)
2) Click Request from other library (You would do this even if you were placing a hold on a Moriarty book to pick up at Moriarty, which we realize is confusing but we can't take out that "Hold" link, so just ignore it!)
3) Before you submit your request you would set the pick-up location to Moriarty.
