Can't find full-text? That is what Interlibrary Loan is for!

About Interlibrary Loan. Click the video to see options to enlarge and view.

Interlibrary Loan is a service utilized by most libraries in the United States to get information materials for their patrons. 

Because most libraries do not have the budget to buy items or access to EVERYTHING that our patrons may wish, libraries share. If the ISU Library does not have an item you want, we can request that another library send us the item at no additional cost to you. 

At Indiana State University, Interlibrary Loan is a service provided free of charge or ISU students and employees. Students have essentially already paid for Interlibrary Loan, so you might as well use it! We want you to get the most appropriate information resources for your assignments and research projects in order to do your best work.
