INTERLIBRARY LOAN REQUESTS

 

Interlibrary loan (ILL) is a service provided by Waggoner to current TNU students and employees whereby books and copies of articles not available in our collection may be ordered from other libraries.  There is no charge to the patron unless fees are imposed by the lending library.  Please check the Waggoner Library catalog and full-text databases before submitting ILL requests. 

 

 

 

Text Box: Quick FACTS:   Materials can be requested online using the Interlibrary Loan link on the library's homepage.  Please allow two weeks for receipt of requested materials. Materials located using Athena can be requested using the Interlibrary Loan link on the results page.  ATHENA requests usually arrive within one week. Theses and dissertations may be ordered, but are sometimes difficult to obtain and often incur extra charges.  Most libraries do not loan videos, reference materials, or entire issues of periodicals. There may be a limit on the number of ILL requests in process at any one time. There may be a limit on the number of personal (non work-related) requests we can fill per semester. No fine charges for faculty members.  However, to help us remain in good standing with the lending libraries, please make every effort to return materials on or before the due date given.  To renew items, please contact Beth Purtee. Lost or damaged items incur charges as imposed by the lending library.  The faculty member may keep article copies. To comply with copyright guidelines, we can request only five articles, published within the past five years from a particular journal per calendar year.  There is no restriction for articles older than five years.  Other copyright information is included on the request form. Contact Beth Purtee, Interlibrary Loan Services Librarian at ext. 1455 for more information.
