Using Tipasa to get Materials from Other Libraries
What is Interlibrary Loan?
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a retrieval service in which the Library will borrow articles, books, etc. for you from other libraries that are not owned in print or online. Use the Tipasa system to place your request.
Sign into Tipasa HERE to submit your request.
Placing a Request
Requests can be made two ways:
Through a database such as Ebscohost, ProQuest or Discovery. This will pre-fill the item’s information into the request form.
Use this method if you are already searching within a database or if you do not have the item’s full information.
For more information, go here.
Check the Library's Catalog/Journal Collection First
Before placing your Interlibrary Loan request, please make sure we do not own the book or have access to the journal article.
