Library Services: Interlibrary Loan

INTERLIBRARY LOAN

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a service that provides the Kingsborough Community College community access to print books, book chapters, and articles not available in the Kingsborough Library via borrowing from other libraries. 

Before making an ILL request, first see if the item is available in the Kingsborough Library by searching in OneSearch. (Ask a librarian for help!)

For more detailed instructions, see our answers to Frequently Asked Questions.

You may request a book, chapter of a book, or periodical article by following the link below:

Requesting Books through OCLC WorldCat

You may find books in other libraries by using WorldCat, a union catalog of thousands of libraries worldwide. If WorldCat indicates that Kingsborough owns the book you can obtain it here, and if it indicates that another library in CUNY owns it you can request it through CLICS (once that service is operational again). If no CUNY library owns the book (or if it is unavailable for some reason) you can request it by clicking on Request through ILLiad next to External Resources. (See example).
