Placing Requests for Interlibrary Loan Materials
All requests for materials must be submitted via our online forms. Before submitting your request, make sure to check the Diamond catalog and/or the Journal Finder service for local availability.In addition to requesting books through InterLibrary Loan, patrons may also request books through E-ZBorrow, a service that allows patrons to place requests directly, with e-mail notification when the material is available. At this time, only books are available through this program; they generally arrive within four working days.
We do not accept requests for items that are checked out, on reserve, or available from another Temple library. Use the Intra-Campus Delivery Service to request materials available from other Temple campuses.
