Interlibrary Loans

Interlibrary Loans information for De Chastelain Library.

The Interlibrary Loans (ILL) service borrows material from other libraries which you need for your course/research but is not available in the library's print or online collection. The library may already own or subscribe to material that would suit your needs.

Please search MultiSearch, our online library search engine, before making an ILL request. 

Material you require not in the Library?

Option 1

Borrow material from another library by making an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) request. When requesting books, items that are available in other Institutes of Technology (IOTs) are preferred.

Option 2

Request a Letter of Introduction or MusicPAL card to allow you to visit another library. Find Out More
