Interlibrary Loan: Requesting Materials

Directions for using Interlibrary Loan to request materials from another library.

Request items using Interlibrary Loan

Renewals (requests to keep the book or other item longer) are the decision of the library who lent the item, so you may or may not be able to renew it.  Follow these steps or view the attached document for instructions & screenshots showing how to request renewals.

1.  Log in to your Interlibrary Loan Account.

2.  Click on "Checked Out Items" along the left-hand side of the window.

3.  Click on the transaction number of the item you want to renew, located in the first cell on the second line of the table displaying the item.

4.  Click "Renew Request" at the top of the transaction information.

5.  A renewal request has been submitted, however this does NOT mean your item is renewed. We will contact you at the email linked to your Interlibrary Loan account and confirm whether the renewal has been issued or denied.
