Interlibrary Loan Service
- is available to current Ivy Tech Community College faculty, students and staff.
- Users must have an Ivy Tech student ID or employee nametag before their ILL requests will be processed.
- The Interlibrary Loan Service allows patrons to request materials and books needed for their research, that are not owned by their local Ivy Tech campus library.
- Although Interlibrary Loan gives you access to many more resources, it may take longer than other means of access. The average delivery time is 5-10 business days. Always start your research early for the best results. Contact the Reference Desk for assistance in locating other in-house or online materials.
Submitting an ILL Request
Requests should be submitted through WorldCat, the steps are as follows:
- Search WorldCat to find the item that you would like to borrow
- Click the ILL button that appears above the record
- Complete and submit the form that appears (items with an asterisk are required)

Returning Borrowed Materials
All items borrowed through ILL must be returned to the Circulation Desk by the due date. Patrons' ILL borrowing privileges may be limited or suspended if due dates are ignored. If interlibrary loan materials are damaged, or are not returned, an administrative hold may be put on your records until the materials are paid for.
