Interlibrary loan requests can be made using:

  • Hamilton Library Catalog - Use the "Books at Other Libraries" filter to search for and request books using the WorldCat.org database
  • WorldCat (FirstSearch) - Use the "Find It" icon to self-populate our interlibrary loan form
  • ILLiad - The interlibrary loan department's fill-in form

Borrowing from another library using the library catalog is just as fast as using WorldCat's FirstSearch interface or the ILLiad fill-in form.

  2. Perform a search and limit it to "Books at Other Libraries."

  5. Log on to ILLiad to view the pre-populated request form.
  6. Click "Submit Request" at the bottom of the form.
