ILL is not intended for extensive borrowing by individuals. Research topics should be selected according to the resources on hand and those resources should be exhausted before making an ILL request. If large numbers of items needed for a project are located at another library, arrangements should be made to use them at that library.
Northwest Missouri State University employees and their spouses, faculty emeriti, and currently enrolled graduate and undergraduate students are eligible to use ILL.
The lending library sets the loan period and any restrictions on the use of the materials. Requests for renewals 必须 be submitted to the ILL Office at least 两天 prior to the due date.
Borrowers may use cash or personal checks made out to Northwest Missouri State University to pay for Interlibrary Loan charges if applicable.
For Books:
At the time of the request the borrower 必须 indicate their expense limit. We will notify the lending library of your limit. Materials which exceed your limit will not be ordered.
For Periodicals
Costs for ordering articles from specialized libraries or international journals, which exceeds $20.00, will be passed on to the borrower. If the charges exceed the expense limit, the borrower will be notified and given the option of changing their limit. A borrower cannot cancel a photocopy request once it has been ordered from another library. Items with these charges will not be released to the borrower until all charges have been paid.
The length of time between the request and the delivery of materials depends on the location of the lending library and the method of delivery utilized by the lending library. Each ILL request will be processed as quickly as possible. Allow at least two weeks for delivery. Borrowers 必须 note a last usable date on the online request form. ASAP is not acceptable. If the requested material is not received by this date, it will automatically be canceled. Borrowers are responsible for charges on all materials exceeding $20.00 received/delivered before the requested last usable date.
