Coronavirus (COVID-19) Disruption

Interlibrary Loan Services During Coronavirus (COVID-19) Disruption

Interlibrary Loan
Starting May 26th, 2020, ILL for physical materials will resume. Please note, that due to a variety of factors related of COVID-19, we cannot guarantee that at this time that items will arrive as quickly as they have in the past. Expect delays.

Once an item arrives, we will notify you. The item(s) will be placed behind the circulation desk. Come to the circulation desk, and we will get the item to you.

Remember, you can always suggest a book for us to add to our collection using this Library Request form.

What about ebooks, can I request one of those?
Unfortunately, due to restrictions by publishers, very few libraries are able to loan out full ebooks. However, if you have a particular chapter in mind, feel free to request that. We will do our best to fulfill it.

What about dissertations or other items I am unsure about?
When in doubt, go ahead and request it and we will let you know on an individual basis if we can get the item. If you are having trouble finding electronic sources for your topic, please email library@goshen.edu or set up an online appointment at the Ask Desk.
