The Van Wagenen Library offers an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service to all SUNY Cobleskill faculty, staff and currently registered students in good standing. This free service allows our patrons to access materials available at other libraries from across the country or around the world.

The first step is to register for an ILL account at the “ILLiad @ the Van Wagenen Library” site. (Look for the link at the bottom of the page that says “First Time Users Click Here to Register.”) For more information about the service, see our Interlibrary Loan guide.

Fines can be paid at the library with cash, check, or credit card only. Ask to speak to the Circulation Manager or Supervisor on duty.

Fines can be paid at Student Accounts using other means including CobyCash or a credit/debit card.

For more information, see our Fines & Fees Policy page.

The second floor of the library is meant for quiet study; tables, chairs, couches, and study carrels around the perimeter of the second floor. Three small group study rooms are also available on the second floor; keys for these rooms can be checked out at the library’s main desk.

A librarian has to make you a guest account; ask at the reference desk.

Ask at the reference desk for assistance locating and retrieving materials.

The library has six iMacs. All are located on the main floor of the library: two in the back near the periodicals, four by the windows looking toward Wheeler Hall.

Your “User ID” is your 800# and PIN is your Banner PIN (not the password you use to log into Moodle or computers on campus). If you've forgotten your Banner PIN, please contact the registrar.

Faculty interested in incorporating information literacy instruction into a class can contact Instructional Design Librarian Don LaPlant by emailing laplandd@cobleskill.edu.  The Library Instruction guide provides more information about instruction options.

In most cases, books and A/V materials from the SUNY Cobleskill collection can be renewed online by signing into your library account or by calling the circulation desk at 518-255-5864. (Exceptions may apply if the item is already overdue, if there's a hold on the item, or if the renewal limit has been reached.)

Renewal of materials received through Interlibrary Loan is at the discretion of the library who owns the borrowed material. Log in to your ILLiad account to see if renewal is allowed, or contact Katherine Brent (brentke@cobleskill.edu), our ILL coordinator, with questions.

Faculty can use this online form to request that items be placed on reserve in the library.

Visit this library catalog log in screen to access your account. Once logged in, you can see what you currently have checked out, find out when items are due, and often, renew items online.
