What is Interlibrary Loan (ILL)?
Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a free service offered to Texas State University students and employees in which materials are borrowed from other libraries on behalf of students when the University Libraries cannot provide access to needed research materials. Requests can be made for books, articles, DVDs, CDs, and more. Once a request is submitted, the library will try to locate the item at a participating library and borrow the material on your behalf. Always make sure to check our online catalog first before submitting an Interlibrary Loan request. For additional assistance please use Ask a Librarian @ RRC.
Requesting Items Through Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad)
The University Libraries at Texas State University use the ILLiad system to handle Interlibrary Loan (ILL) requests. Requested items may be picked up at the RRC Library. You can designate your preferred University Libraries pick up location when you create a profile within ILLiad.
ILL items cannot be delivered to off campus locations.
If the lending library digitizes an item, such as an article, you will be able to access the material online in the ILLiad system.
