CSU libraries. Staff are required to honor the loan policies
of the lending institutions. Use this link to access

Interlibrary Loan for more information.
OR
- Obtain ILL request forms at the Reference Center Desk.
Complete one card for each book or article needed and submit
the forms at the Reference Center.
- Materials may be picked up at the Circulation Desk. It usually takes
an average of 3 to 10 working days to fulfill interlibrary loan
requests.
- Materials borrowed by the Library on behalf of staff via Interlibrary
Loan must be returned to the Circulation Desk by the date due.
