Article not in the library?
If the Consortium Library does not have the article you are looking for, you can Interlibrary Loan the article. Most often interlibrary loan articles are emailed to the person requesting the article. This is a great service that allows access to even more materials beyond the Consortium Library walls. One thing to remember, is that it will take time to fill your interlibrary load requests. So request articles well before your paper or project is due! To learn more about Interlibrary Loan, check out the Consortium Library's Interlibrary Loan tutorials.
