You'll learn more about FirstSearch in Lesson 3 of this coursepack. When you find books or other research materials of interest that are not available at the Reed Library, you can obtain many of these items through interlibrary loan. Fill out a request form for each item needed, and give these forms to a reference librarian. Ask at the reference desk if you do not know where to find the forms. Use the online ZAP service to submit the forms electronically.
Interlibrary loans are free except for a ten cents per page charge for photocopied articles.
Interlibrary loan is not an option when you wait until the last minute.
