InterLibrary Loan

This link takes you to WorldCat, a global library catalog.
In the search box that comes up, enter the book’s title. When you find the book you want, click on the title and then find the Request button under “Access Options” on the right hand side of the page.
To request renewals for interlibrary loan books, please contact the ILL Office at least 5 days before the original due date.
Request BookMost requests are usually available from free suppliers, but delivery time varies according to availability and location. Please still allow at least ten days for delivery for physical materials (articles delivered electronically arrive much more quickly). We do not usually accept requests for audiovisual materials.
You will be notified when your interlibrary loan material is ready for pickup at the Circulation Desk. Photocopies of articles do not have to be returned. For books and other items that must be returned, the lending library determines the due date and all interlibrary loans must be returned on time to avoid endangering the library’s borrowing privileges.
