Where's Education Department Reports??

For our students studying away from our home campus (and needless to say, we welcome your visit!), we've compiled a short list of libraries that may have Education Department Reports, AKA "Judicial decisions of the Commissioner of Education and formal opinions of counsel", volumes 1 to ___.

While we've tried to ascertain that these libraries own the older, paper volumes you may need for your, we can't make any guarantees. Additionally, every library has its own policies for admitting visitros to use their libraries, so please call them before you travel!

Here's a short list of nearby libraries. Google 'em for their phone numbers and to search their catalogs top verify they have the volumes you need

SUNY New Paltz

Vassar

Greene County Courthouse

Newburgh Free Library

Mount Vernon

Yonkers –Riverfront

[Many CUNY libraries]

Iona College

Concordia

Pace (and Pace Law library)

Columbia Teacher’s College


ALSO: are you familiar with worldcat.org? It's a tool for locating materials in libraries and it even informs you how far away those libraries are! Here is the search result for Education Department Reports (distances may appear with New Paltz as the origin),
