How do I request a book or article that the library doesn't own?
Answer
You can request material that the RWU library doesn't own through Interlibrary Loan (ILL).
- Go to the library home page
- Click on Interlibrary Loan Request link under the Quick Links section of the page
- Log in to your interlibrary loan (ILL) user portal using your single sign-on information. You should see “Hello (your first name)" at the top right-hand side of the page
- Click on the Requested button
- Click on the Create Request button
- You have three request options: Article, Book, and Other. Select the appropriate template and fill in all required information. The more complete the citation information, the faster ILL staff will be able to fill your request.
- Click “Submit Request”
- You’ll receive an email confirming your new request and an email notification when your requested items are available. Articles/chapters are delivery electronically via email, and book/media requests are delivered to the location you specify.
