INTERLIBRARY LOAN

What is Inter Library Loan?

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is the borrowing of library material through a state and national network. If you are unable to locate the material you need at the CCBC Dundalk Library, a library staff member will locate the material at another library. Most of the Interlibrary Loan material are books and periodical articles.

How long will it take to receive my material?
It can be as quickly as one day or as long as four weeks to receive your requested material. If the material requested is from a Community College it takes less time to receive the material. Ask a librarian for an approximate date of arrival of your request. We will use the best resources to expedite your request.

Does it cost any money?
Most Interlibrary Loan material is free to borrow. If we have to go out of state we will ask you to pay any cost the lending libraries might charge. Many out of state libraries do not have a fee.

Who may request for material from Interlibrary Loan at CCBC Dundalk Library?
Only students currently enrolled at Dundalk may request material using this Interlibrary Loan network.
