We use two systems to locate and deliver items requested via interlibrary loan. Which one you use depends on the type of material you're requesting:
For book requests, use the system. PALCI (Pennsylvania Academic Library Consortium, Inc.) is a consortium of libraries in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that works together to streamline the process of borrowing books via interlibrary loan. Please note that PALCI is limited to requests for print books.
For articles or other non-book items, use the system. ILLIAD (Interlibrary Loan Internet Accessible Database) is a resource-sharing system that connects the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Libraries to other libraries to send, receive, and process interlibrary loan requests. ILLIAD allows us to provide expedited services to our users and allows users to track the progress of their requests online.
