Interlibrary Loan

Interlibrary Loan 101

Interlibrary Loan is a cooperative program where libraries provide materials to the users of other libraries on request.

If the Rohrbach Library does not own the necessary materials (copies, books, or physical media such as DVDs), users may place an ILL request or request items through a library database search.

ILL staff then queries other libraries for the needed materials, as in the infographic below.
