Interlibrary Loan
forms available to provide you with the best service
Are you requesting to borrow a textbook for a class at GMU? It is difficult to find a library which owns or will lend a textbook, so it is unlikely that your request will be filled. If we succeed in borrowing your textbook, you will not be able to keep it for the entire semester. Required textbooks are meant to be purchased by the student.
- Please read the following descriptions and choose the service that best serves your needs.
- ATTENTION: Using the incorrect service will not cancel your request, but may severely delay the process while the staff reroutes your request to the appropriate service.
