Five items may be faxed or rushed at one time. Interlibrary Loan Request forms are available in the Interlibrary Loan office and at the Reference Desk. Ask the Distance Learner Services to mail, email, or fax the form. Email requests are accepted. Request may be submitted electronically via a Request Form for Distance Learner Library Materials .
Communication is by email or by phone.
Items are then emailed, faxed, or mailed to the distance learner. Please pay close attention to due dates, since material must be returned to the ORU Library and then returned to the loaning library. The due date is set by the lending library, and renewals are rare. If you must request an extension, contact the ORU Library before the due date on the label on the book. Often the local public library can obtain the materials faster than ORU can receive and forward through the mail.
