What is Interlibrary Loan?
Interlibrary Loan is a service provided by the library. If we don't have an article or book you need, we will try to get it from another library so you can use it.

How long does it take to get my request filled?
Articles tend to take a couple of workdays; they are usually emailed, so they arrive quickly. Books take anywhere from a few days to two weeks; we get interlibrary loans filled from libraries all over the nation and the world.
If you find a resource in our catalog or database that you want to use but cannot get full access to, you may see a maroon button that says Request Item through Interlibrary Loan. (Example here).
Follow that link to the Interlibrary Loan page. Select the appropriate form (book or article request), fill it out, and submit it.
To avoid running into material that is not immediately available to you, choose Freed-Hardeman University Libraries and Full Text in the Search Tools bar.
