Request Material Online

Many resources on our Web site are preceded by a

Step 1 - Before completing a form and submitting a request, check the following sources to see if material is in our collections or available online. If material is available online, use it accordingly; requests for material available online will not be processed.

Search the Books & Media (Library Catalog) for print books and media (ebooks [online], etheses [online], ejournal databases [online], diskettes, CD-ROMs, audiotapes, audio-CDs, videotapes, DVDs, and microfiche).

Search eJournals for articles (online) and Print Journal Lists for titles available in the libraries.

Step 2 - Select a form below that best suits your needs.

Intra-library Loan Form - Use this for articles from print journals to be transferred from one of our libraries to the one you use frequently.
