Interlibrary Loan

If the Dana Library does not own the item you need, you may request it via interlibrary loan. We loan and borrow books between many other libraries across the United States.

You may print the form below, fill it out, and leave it at the Circulation Desk. We also have copies of this form at the Circulation Desk. You may also e-mail your interlibrary loan request to Linda Fleming at Lfleming@dana.edu. Be sure to include all the necessary information about the item you are requesting in your e-mail (see below).

A request is not a guarantee that other libraries will loan the item.  Please allow 7 to 10 days for the item to reach the Dana College Library.  We are generally quite successful in fulfilling interlibrary loan requests, but we must follow the policies of the lending library.  The normal checkout period for items is 30 days unless the lending library specifies a different due date.  Renewals may be requested, but must be granted by the lending library.
