What it is

Interlibrary Loan is a voluntary system of sharing materials between libraries, based on goodwill and mutual benefit. Our use of OCLC’s bibliographic database and computerized borrowing system helps us to provide students and faculty with the best possible service.

Those requesting interlibrary loans should check the Nease Library Online Catalog for availability of desired materials before requesting them through interlibrary loan.

How long does it take?

Students and faculty can expect their Interlibrary Loan requests to arrive in approximately 3 to 7 business days. Nease Library will notify students and faculty by email when their requested items have arrived.

Can I get whatever I want?

We do not ILL textbooks for class.

Nease Library reserves the right to refuse an interlibrary loan request if, in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would violate the copyright law.
