Q. How do I return books to the library?

Please return materials to the book drops outside the University or Dewey Libraries or the book drop in the University Library's front lobby. Return bins are emptied daily. If bins are locked or full, please return materials to a library service desk. 

If you are no longer in the Albany area, you can return books to another SUNY library. Contact them ahead of time so that you can inquire about their protocols. We will also accept materials mailed via USPS to:

University Library Circulation
1400 Washington Ave., LI-119
Albany, NY 12222

If mailing materials, the library recommends insuring the package to cover any damage or loss resulting from shipping.
