SOWELA

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a system of borrowing and lending resources between libraries.

· For library users this means obtaining materials (i.e. books and articles) not available at Sowela Library.
· ILL is available only to Sowela faculty, staff, and students.
· Requests are subject to the policies of the lending library and U.S. copyright laws.
· Materials borrowed through Interlibrary Loan are short-term loans, usually 3-4 weeks.
· Allow a week or two before materials arrive.
