What is an interlibrary loan?
Interlibrary loans let you borrow materials from other libraries around the world. Any Jamestown Community College patron can use the ILL system to find class materials, bestseller books, and more.
The amount of time it takes to receive a loan depends on how close the lending library is, anywhere from 24 hours up to 14 business days.
The descriptive records for materials found in library catalogs will identify features of the work, such as if the work is printed in a large font type, is the specific edition of a work, or includes closed captioning. If you need assistance in locating the edition you need, contact the libraries.
