Taxonomy: Interlibrary Loan

A service that enables patrons to obtain access to books, journals and other materials unavailable at their own library by borrowing the items (or a photocopy of the materials) from the collection of another library. The patron’s library locates the items, processes the interlibrary loan request, notifies the patron when the materials have been received and returns the materials to the second library when the individual has finished using them. Patrons are permitted to keep any photocopies.
