Library tip #67
If you’re looking at a book in our catalog that’s checked out and it has a far off due date, a faculty or staff member has it. (We have 6 month check out and unlimited renewals).
If you want it, place a hold on it.
It’ll be recalled so you can check it out.
If we can’t get it back in a timely manner, Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery Services will find it for you.
You need a book that’s only available at one college in the U.S.? They get it here.
You need an article in another language that was published in an obscure and out of circulation journal? They will get a copy of it.
This is what they do. You want it, ILL finds it. I’ve seen them move mountains to get books and articles for patrons. ILL are the miracle makers of libraries.
UCF faculty, staff, and students can access ours here.
