Borrowing Items the Library Does Not Own
How do you get items the University Libraries does not own?
Document Delivery (sometimes known as Interlibrary Loan) can be used to borrow materials from other libraries.
Although UNLV Libraries has an outstanding collection of print and electronic materials, on occasion, you will more than likely wish to obtain a source that we do not own.
To obtain books, dissertations, articles, government publications, and/or reports that UNLV Libraries do not own, you can make a request through our Document Delivery Department.
Although delivery of materials tends to be fast, you will need to plan for a one to four week turn around time.
The Document Delivery Department uses the Illiad system to request items. First time users will need to register to use the Illiad system to request items. The username and password you create will be used in the future when you want to request items.
For more information about document delivery please view our Interlibrary Loan page.
