Through Interlibrary loan, the Library provides patrons with access to information and materials that are not available in our Library. Some guidelines for the use of ILL:

1. Patrons may submit three requests at a time.

2. Some items will be considered for purchase by our Library rather than borrowed such as: fiction, items available in paperback at a low cost, and non-fiction which might fill a need in our collection.

3. It is the policy of some loaning libraries to limit or deny borrowing of certain items or formats. Most libraries do not loan out copies of their newest titles.

4. Some items are in reserve collections and cannot be borrowed.

5. Use of the ILL service is a privilege extended to JCL patrons. It is the patron's responsibility to make sure that borrowed items are returned on time and in good condition so that our Library can remain in good standing with other network libraries. If the ILL service is abused, patron's access to this service may be denied.
