A lot of times books and articles can be found through the library’s online catalog and easily accessed without asking for help, but sometimes the library doesn’t have what you need. When that happens, you can submit request through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). ILL is a way for library patrons to obtain books, videos, music, or other items as needed from other libraries—not only from around the state, but from around the world—usually at no cost to our patrons.
The ILL department provides scans of book chapters and journal articles for our patrons not physically located on campus and will also mail items to home addresses for distance students. We also lend items from our collection to other libraries to promote the sharing of library resources which helps connect people to the information they are looking for.
In addition to all of this, ILL also maintains electronic course reserves for faculty members to make book chapters, poems, and articles available to students and help defray the cost of buying textbooks.
