All requests for interlibrary loan of microfilmed materials must be made via OCLC or ALA-approved interlibrary loan request forms. We accept faxed requests of ALA forms. NO IN-HOUSE FORMS OR TELEPHONE REQUESTS WILL BE ACCEPTED.

All loaned microfilm material must be restricted to LIBRARY USE ONLY by the borrowing library. The loan period for materials is on month from the date sent. A renewal of two weeks is available if the material has not been reserved by another library.

We send all microfilm in a shipping box. All microfilm must be returned in a SHIPPING BOX. Padded envelopes are not acceptable. Systems should leave the materials in the shipping box until it reaches its final destination. There is no charge for loans that are sent via ILDS to ILLINET Member libraries, and we participate in Libraries Very Interested in Sharing (LVIS). Reimbursement of postage and insurance is required for all other loans. We also participate in the OCLC ILL automatic payment (IFM).

Microfilm returned through the U.S. mail must be insured for the amount indicated on the form included with the material. Charges for services are also indicated on the form. This is the only invoice you will receive. A copy of that form should be returned with the material.
