What is Interlibrary Loan?
- If IMSA's IRC doesn't own a book (or we have the ebook & you want a print book) we can borrow it from a library that does own it
Why would I want to do this?
- The libraries at the University of Illinois & others contain a great wealth & depth of information that you may not find elsewhere. This can be invaluable if you are doing an independent study or SIR. It can also help you with more obscure/specialized topics that our library doesn't have as much on.
Do other students use Interlibrary Loan?
- Yes! We get several hundreds of books from other libraries each school year.
Is it hard to do?
- No! The easiest way to order an Interlibrary Loan is on our catalog.
