INTERLIBRARY LOAN: GETTING STARTED

Kendall College, along with libraries all over the world, participate in Interlibrary Loan. ILL is a cooperative effort to provide articles, books, and other materials to researchers, students, and faculty. 

Here are some things to keep in mind:

• Some materials may be difficult to obtain, including bestsellers, textbooks, books recently featured on TV talk shows, genealogical materials, special collections, rare books, expensive materials, or fragile items.
• Loan periods for returnable items obtained through ILL vary widely due to different circulation policies throughout the United States and worldwide. Check the due date when you receive your item and make a note to return it in time. To inquire about renewals, contact ILL directly at library@kendall.edu.
• Distance Learners may be eligible for our book shipment service. Please contact the library for more information.
