ILL requests are processed Monday-Friday and there is really no set time for how fast we can obtain materials. It could take anywhere from 1 day to 2 weeks depending on how fast the other libraries respond to our request and in what method they send the request. We will try our hardest to get the material to you in the fastest possible way.

Books received through ILL must be returned at the Circulation Desk by the date indicated on the banner.
