By using interlibrary loan, you agree to:

• Only request items published or released prior to the current or previous calendar year -- e.g. in 2016, you may not request items published in 2016 or 2015. (Check amazon.com for publication dates.)
• Limit your ILL requests to five per month.
• Avoid requesting feature films, (fictional) TV series, video games, original periodicals (copies are fine), textbooks or items valued under $10 (per amazon.com).
• Avoid requesting items published more than 75 years ago.
• Limit requests so that you have enough time to use the items you receive.
• Allow two to eight weeks for fulfillment. Contact us to check the status of your request.
• Pick up items promptly upon notification of their availability.
• Return items by the due date printed on the ILL label.
• Contact us to request renewals two to three days before the due date.
• Abide by the copyright laws of the United States (Title 17, U.S. Code).

Interlibrary loan privileges may be suspended for: failure to pick up multiple items; failure to return multiple items by their due dates; multiple damaged or lost items; exceeding request limits; other abuses of the system.
