What is an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) Request?

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service allows users to request library material not owned by the CUSM Info Commons. 

How do I request an ILL?

There are two options for submitting an ILL request for an item not found in our resource collections. 

Option 1#: If an item is available for ILL within our catalog, the message "Request this item through interlibrary loan" will appear.  Select this option to complete an ILL request and submit the request.  A confirmation notice will appear if submitted successfully.

Option #2: If an item is not available for ILL in our catalog, please complete the Interlibrary Loan Request Form on the CUSM Info Commons website. Enter the required information on the form and click the submit button. A confirmation notice will appear if submitted successfully.
