Making An ILL Request

If the full text of your article is not available in the library databases, we can request it from another library.  Follow these steps:

  • Start at the Library Home Page.
  • In the menu on the left of the screen, select "Services"
  • From the pop-up menu, select "Request Materials--ILL"
  • When the form displays, set the Request Type to "Interlibrary Loan Article Request."

Fill out the form with the required information about the article: be sure that you provide both the title of the specific article and the title of the journal it appeared in.  

If you have trouble with the form, chat with a librarian for help.  

Your article will be sent to you via email.  Usually, the process takes a few days, but in rare instances, it might be as much as two weeks, so make your request in plenty of time!
