Pescosolido Library

The Carl A. Pescosolido Library
Built in 1997, the Carl A. Pescosolido Library forms the academic core of the Academy. The library includes more than 20,000 square feet of study and research space, a 30,000-volume collection with capacity to 50,000 volumes, 175 dataports and wireless access, hundreds of periodicals, and expansive, light-filled research areas and group study rooms. The library is a member of the Northeast Massachusetts Regional Library System that provides access to interlibrary loan, supplemental reference service, information databases, and document delivery through the Boston Public Library. The library has an active presence on Classrooms on Elmstreet, the Academy’s Moodle site. The library maintains research guides, library resources, reading links and research project guides for internal users.

In The Library Today

Beautiful weather for Mr. Wann and company

Summer in the Pesky Library is a time for reflection and planning. We're evaluating what worked well and what needs improvement. We recharge our excitement and enthusiasm in the hope that next year will be even better than the last. Major cleaning and repair projects happen now, when students are off campus. New books will be processed and put on the shelves, supplies will be restocked, plans will be made. We wish everyone in the community a safe and happy summer.

A reminder to students that our news and magazine databases are available all summer. Offsite passwords are in Moodle. Many of the books in our catalog are now available electronically - those passwords are also in Moodle. If you need anything, we're just an email away.
