Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a service that allows you to obtain materials not owned by the Marygrove College Library. This service is provided free to all students, staff, faculty, alumni with proof of degree, and the IHM Sisters.

There are several ways to make a request:

1. Submit an electronic form for a book or an article,
    
2. Email Sylvia Turner at sturner@marygrove.edu, or
    
3. Use the ILL button available in most Library databases.
    

Please be aware that:

• Your item will usually arrive within 1-2 weeks (sometimes sooner, sometimes later) so plan ahead!
• You will be emailed or called when the item is available for pickup at the Library circulation desk.
• Articles arrive in electronic or photocopied format, and they are yours to keep. Books are borrowed and must be returned by the date printed on the cover. Renewal is usually possible - please contact Sylvia Turner before the due date.
• You are responsible for the replacement or repair of ILL items borrowed in your name, and for any fines incurred. The Library wishes to maintain a good reputation in the interlibrary loan community, so please care for the loaned items and return them promptly.
• Some items are seldom loaned via ILL. These include rare books and archival material, audio-visual material, entire issues or volumes of periodicals, genealogical manuscripts, most reference books and some dissertations.
