Amelia Barbeson Library provides several article and book delivery services. Service is also available to members of the community for a fee.

for such requests range from 24 hours to 5 business days. If your request is urgent, please let a member of the interlibrary loan staff know. They can make special arrangement for RUSH delivery.
Be aware, urgent services are not free. Books that are borrowed from other libraries will have the date due posted on the front. The loan period
varies by which institution the book is borrowed from. That can vary from one week to several months. The Amelia Barbeson Library does not borrow or lend materials from Corporate Libraries or non-OCLC members.
