Request Processing
Our goal is to have your request processed and filled within 3-5 business days of receipt.
It is a good idea to allow at least 1 to 3 weeks for ILL items to arrive, especially for materials sent USPS; some requests may arrive sooner.
Every attempt will be made to fill all orders, but delivery cannot be guaranteed since materials are occasionally in use or missing. Incomplete or inaccurate citations may delay processing. Requests must comply with current United States copyright law.
Rush Orders
It is possible to place rush orders. Rush requests will be processed within 24-hours of receipt. Rush requests noted "PATIENT CARE EMERGENCY" will be processed immediately. To expedite handling of these requests, please phone the lending library to notify staff of the rush.
