How long does it take to receive Interlibrary Loan materials?

The average time to receive materials is 1-2 weeks for loans and 2-5 days for copies or electronic documents. The turnaround time on requests depends on the location of the lending library and/or whether your request had to be forwarded to multiple libraries before finding a willing lender.

If you cannot use an item if not received by a specific date, please indicate this in your original request.
