Access
Services—Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary Loan provides access to material not available at the
Library. Current CSU faculty, students, and staff are all eligible
for the service. Patrons should first check the Library
Catalog, electronic collections,
and Illinois consortium I-Share catalog
before submitting their requests. Every effort will be made to secure
the item requested as soon as possible.
Make a Request
Making a request for the first time is a bit different than making
second and subsequent requests.
First time users
Second+ time users
Please use the online forms only for the
first time and a single citation. For multiple requests,
an MS Word® file with all the citations on the same
page is preferred. Attach this to email for iloan@csu.edu.
This way, you don’t have to fill out too many forms
with repeated information, and your MS Word file will make
it a lot faster for processing. Thank you.
