Why can't I take books out of The Research Libraries?

NYPL, Humanities and Social Sciences Library FAQ
The Research Libraries of The New York Public Library are completely non-circulating. That means that the collections have been assembled as a permanent record of civilization, and keeping them all on-site at all times helps ensure that materials will remain in the collections forever. The Research Libraries maintain limited interlibrary loan agreements with Research Libraries Group (RLG) member libraries.

How do you research for your books?

Juliet Burns - Frequently Asked Questions.
Well, besides a wonderful CP whose DH is a cop... I use the web a lot, but I'm also on a couple of great writer's loops and have also been known to call someone up cold turkey (like the guy at the liquor store when I needed to describe a certain type of champagne or the wonderfully helpful Forensic Pathologist at the Dallas Crime Lab) or send an email-like this really great horse trainer in Canada.

If you are from another LIU campus, make the request at that campus. This is not a quick service, and it is safest to assume that your request will take at least four weeks to arrive.

Writing - Tara K. Harper, Author FAQ
Yes. My husband calls it the R&D phase of my writing. Out of each year, I spend approximately six months researching the science and ideas I have for several books. This usually means studying sciences, interviewing and working with scientists and other professionals; developing scenarios and testing them out. I correspond with professionals from around the world. Not all my research goes into each book. Some technology simply isn't appropriate for this or that story.

Nelson DeMille - FAQ
There are three ways to do research: reading; interviewing people; going on location. Usually, I begin by reading about a subject until I have enough knowledge to interview people who are in that profession or occupation that I'm writing about - policemen, FBI agents, scientists, forensic people, and so on. Then I go to the locations where my novels are set, such as Moscow (The Charm School), St. Patrick's Cathedral (Cathedral), Ohio (Spencerville), and so forth.

the libraries. Why?

news.answers/apple2/GNO-faq
A#11.7: Just because a function is declared, that doesn't necessarily mean that it's been implemented. However, it is useful to keep those declarations in the system header files. Not only does it minimize namespace conflicts with user code (application programmers are less likely to use function names that conflict with system header files), but it ensures that the interface is defined for anyone who wishes to contribute an implementation.
