If you're affiliated with Northeastern and our libraries do not have a book or article you need, and you would like to get it from another library, you have two choices. You may go to another library yourself, or you may ask us to order the material for you. If you would like to pick it up yourself and it's a book, use WorldCat to see which other libraries have the book. If a BLC library has it, the Circulation Desk will issue you a BLC card that will allow you to borrow it from one of those libraries. If the library that has the book is outside the BLC, you will have to contact that library on your own to see if they will lend to you.
Turnaround time varies widely with the lending library.

Recommendations for purchase may be made by contacting the appropriate liaison or collection manager for your subject.
