Looking for a book that the library does not own? You may be able to get it through our Inter-Library Loan (ILL) service. We allow two requests at a time.

What we CAN try to ILL:

• Articles
• Books
• Book in a foreign language, provided that the title and author are spelled using western alphabet.
• Children’s books (if they have been requested by someone 13 and older)

What we CAN NOT ILL:

• Any audiovisual material (audio books, DVDs, CDs, language kits etc.)
• New books published within the past year
• Books from the United States or international
• Text books or course workbooks (due to time limitations)
• Books that our library already owns

Unfortunately, we cannot specify when requested material will arrive. It can be anywhere from 4 to 5 weeks or longer. While the Library makes every effort to secure items for its patrons, it is not always possible due to a variety of reasons (ex: availability, geographic location, and loan policy of other libraries). Especially important to note, we do not charge patrons any fees. And we only ILL books without a charge.
