Rosie the Owl asks, "Did you know that the library can get you articles and books we don't hold - for free?"

If you've found that perfect article or book for your research, but our library doesn't own it, click on the blue (for articles) or red (for books) Request through Interlibrary Loan button. You'll be presented with a form to fill out to request the item through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). In most cases the form will automatically be filled in with the citation information for the item, even! If you're logged into your network account, your contact information should also be filled in automatically. Articles are generally received in about a day, and books within about 6 to 10 days.

If you have the citation for an article or book that you found outside of our databases or catalog, you can place an ILL request for that using the form found on the Interlibrary Loan web page.

Dare to be wise!
