Search the MLS Professional Collection

The Professional Collection at MLS is housed in the Marlborough office.  You can search the professional collection using the link below.  Please note that searches are limited to items in the professional collection, so the vocabulary you use to search with should be appropriate to a collection related to the management and use of libraries.

If you find an item in the professional collection that you would like to borrow, you can place your own request using the instructions in the PDF below.  You will need to know your library’s BPL card number (also known as your library’s ILLiad number) in order to login and place your hold request.
