Services

Borrow from Other Libraries

About

If you need materials that Connelly Library does not own or are not available, there are two services that can help.

  • E-ZBorrow is a self-service option (for books only): you search for the item and we get it to you.
  • Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a full-service option: we search for the item and get it to you.

These services are provided at no cost to you.

ALERT - EZ-BORROW UNAVAILABLE

EZ-Borrow Maintenance

 

The Connelly Library is migrating to a new Library Management System named FOLIO. In order for EZ-Borrow to successfully integrate with FOLIO, EZ-Borrow will be unavailable beginning Monday, March 18, 2024. We expect to be able to return service within 1-2 weeks. 

During the time EZ-Borrow is unavailable, you can request material using OCLC WorldShare InterLibrary Loan

If you have any questions, please send an email to interlibraryloan@lasalle.edu
