We will then ask the owning library for a renewal and inform you of their decision. You may request a renewal only once per item. Yes, you will be notified by mail with an explanation as to why your request wasn't filled. As a minimum, for most book requests, you should provide title and author. For copies of articles you should provide journal title, article title, article author, and the issue in which the article appeared.
Additional information is always beneficial.
The more information you can provide, the greater the likelihood we will be able to quickly obtain the item. You do not have to know the name of a library owning the item in order to submit an ILL request. The ILL process simply takes a certain amount of time. If you have an urgent need, please contact the ILL office. You can do this by asking at either the reference or circulation desk or by looking at the CLC web page .
