Interlibrary Loans

Procedure

Fill out the online ILL request form (see center of this page). Requested items are picked up at References Services Desk and (if necessary) returned to Reference Services Desk.

Required Data

A complete bibliographic citation of the needed item is required. Do not abbreviate. For the benefit of the lending library, all citations must be complete with article title, journal name, volume, date and pages for journal articles and author, title, publisher and date for books. For assistance locating missing information, contact Reference Services.

Delivery Time

It is difficult to determine the exact time necessary to receive each requested item. It may take 7 to 21 days or longer. During busy times of the school year, requests take longer to fill. In your preparation of research assignments, it is best to allow 10 to 15 days.

Renewals

If the materials are needed beyond the initial due date, submit an online renewal form (see center of this page). Patrons may keep the materials until notified by ILL staff of either the new due date or that the renewal was denied.

Lost or Damaged Items

Materials which have been lost or damaged must be paid for by the patron. Charges will cover the replacement cost of the materials and may also include service charges.

Contact Wayne Stevens with questions or suggestions.

 

Renewal Request

Interlibrary Loan books can often be renewed unless marked as non-renewable. The Borrower will be notified if a renewal IS or IS NOT granted.

The loaning library may not grant our request for a renewal. In that case, we will try to get the item from another library for the patron. Patrons should keep the item until they hear from us with a new due date, or a request to return the item. So, the patron should try to finish with the book as quickly as possible.
