ENGL 3010: Introduction to Literary Studies: Interlibrary Loan

Interlibrary loan is a sharing of materials between libraries.

• Some materials may be difficult or impossible to obtain including current popular titles, genealogy books, reference books, rare or expensive materials, and fragile items.
• Loan periods vary due to each lending library's policies.
• Length of time it takes to receive an item can be affected by a number of factors including staff shortages at the lending library, shipping method (usually Library Rate mail), distance to the lending library, etc.
• Textbook requests are not accepted. (You might have success with textbooks in GIL Express)
