Access to the Library: Fall 2021
Who can visit Fleet Library right now?
- All visitors must adhere to RISD's campus safety protocols.
- RISD cardholders (including alumni) and Athenaeum members are allowed walk-in access during library open hours, except for Special Collections and Archives visits which require an appointment.
- Others who would like to visit should email risdlib@risd.edu to request an appointment in advance.
Access to the Providence Athenaeum: Show your RISD ID for access to the Athenaeum.
Access to Brown University Libraries: Students may show a RISD ID to enter, but RISD faculty and staff must complete this vaccine attestation form in advance to request an access card. Please be sure to have a working RISD Library account. Access to Brown's electronic subscription databases is available on-site via designated visitor computers at the Rockefeller and Sciences libraries. Problems with this? Contact Brown's Head of Circulation, Bart Hollingsworth. We continue to recommend using our Interlibrary Loan service to request items not locally available at RISD or Brown. See Brown's full policies here. Please contact a Research Librarian if you would like assistance on the RISD side.
