Interlibrary Loan

If Morrisville State College does not own materials needed by library users, the Interlibrary Loan Department will make every effort to get the materials from another library.

• Use the ILLiad Interlibrary Loan System

Making an Interlibrary Loan Request

• Interlibrary loan services are available to faculty, students, and staff of Morrisville State College as well as to local area residents who are not affiliated with other regional educational institutions.
• The ILLiad system allows users to request various library materials, check the status of these requests, and renew materials that have already been borrowed.
• A week to ten days is the average waiting period for requests to be filled, though some requests may be filled more quickly. The Morrisville State College library does not have control over delivery time of requests.
