If this attempt is unsuccessful we can then processs your Inter-library loan request. When a book arrives it is checked out to the patron who requested the book. The due date is determined by the lending library, and a yellow slip with the due date is placed on the inside cover of the book. Or you can view your patron record to see when all your books are due - including the Interlibrary loan books. When returning an Inter-library loan you should hand it to a person at the Circulation Desk.
Renewals are on a special request basis only, and are determined by the lending library.
Since this transaction is done through an on-line system it is not necessary to bring the book into the library. When an answer is received you will be notified either by phone or e-mail. When requesting articles one must take into account copyright - we can only request a limited number of articles per journal in a given year. If you need lots of articles from the same journal we may not be able to fill your request. If the title is available locally we will let you know which library has the issues you seek.
