• Choose your notification/delivery preference from the drop-down menu. Allow an extra 2-3 days for mailed items
• Ensure we have the information needed to contact you according to your preference (e.g. if you've requested Mail to Home, make sure you previously entered your home address)
• Log out when you are finished making requests
Notes:
• Microfilm and materials marked "Library Use Only" will be stored in the Interlibrary Loan office where you can request to use them during library hours
• Lending libraries have different policies concerning book chapters. Some libraries will copy chapters while others will simply lend us the book
