Interlibrary Loan

If you need materials not immediately available through Olivet or I-Share, you may request them through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). This service connects our library to thousands of other libraries throughout the world, including hundreds in Illinois. ILL is available only to Olivet students, faculty and staff.

Option 1

If you think you need Interlibrary Loan for an item, be sure you've checked other resources provided by Benner Library Online for that item.
  • Check for other sources on the Find Books & Articles site.
  • Most databases have an "Interlibrary Loan" graphic or a "Request" Request this item graphic option.
  • Type your patron information, click submit, and your request will go directly to our ILL department.
  • Turnaround time is most efficient if you use these database request forms.

Option 2

If you have a partial citation, email the information to an ILL Staff Member.

Option 3

If you have a complete citation, order using the ILL Wizard.

Option 4

If the above options don't work, contact Interlibrary Loan.
