Each school/university will have its own policies, some allow the general public access but no borrowing, others have borrow policies usually under a "Friend of the Library" membership. For example:
Between NYPL, QPL, BPL, and these I think living in NYC gives you access to a pretty great selection of materials. Navigating the policies can be a bit like juggling streaming services but is completely worth it in my opinion.
