JAY-ROLLINS LIBRARY  

INTERLIBRARY LOAN

Interlibrary loan (ILL) is a cooperative service provided by libraries throughout the United States and is intended to be a supplement to, not a replacement for, the resources of our library and the local Consortium collections.

One should thoroughly examine and use the materials available in our Library and the Consortium. Our Reference Librarian can offer advice for obtaining available resources.

Usually requested material arrives in five to fourteen days from the lending library. However, depending on who we are able to borrow your material from, it can take up to 4 weeks.

Books and articles borrowed through ILL are held at the Circulation Desk. Library staff will send an email to let you know it has arrived.
