The Library recognizes and responds to several "communities." These include:
New York City and the Borough of Brooklyn
The general public, for whom Special Collections' and Government Publications' materials and services are valuable tools
Alumnae/alumni, whom we reach principally through the activities of the Friends of the Library
External but related communities like the faculty and students of other CUNY campuses
Campus constituencies such as Faculty Council's Committee on the Library, the Library Representatives, the Technology Representatives, our colleagues in Information Technology and Services, and Student Government
