What is Interlibrary Loan?
Interlibrary loan is an online service to connect you with items our library doesn't own, are checked out, or in non-circulating collections: If the item you want isn't available from our library, you can order it through interlibrary loan. Articles will be sent directly to you. Books must be picked up at the library. You will be notified by e-mail when your item arrives. It's fast and quick, and best of all, you already have an account - just activate by logging in to Tipasa with your IslandID and password!
Typically journal articles are available in electronic format - and come through your interlibrary loan account. Typical delivery time for an online article is 1-3 days. If it is an item in print, it may take a little longer and the item will be delivered to your home address. Typical delivery time for a print item is 4-7 days average.
