POLS 232, American Politics II (Walsh): Library Resources

Interlibrary Loan, or ILL, is a free service by which the library will order items we don't have from other libraries. A few facts to know:

• You don't need to give up on an article just because we don't have full-text access to it. And you should never need to pay for an article. Submit an ILL request instead. 
• ILL averages a two-day turn-around on article requests. You can also request a book chapter or a full book. Full books take longer and come to the library via mail or courier. 
• There is no charge for ILL and no limit to the number of requests. 
• You can place an ILL request from within a database or from the library homepage.
