Interlibrary Loan

How to request items from other libraries

What is Interlibrary Loan?

Sometimes you might need materials that Billington Library does not own.  

You can use Interlibrary Loan (ILL) to request items from other libraries to support your learning, research, and teaching.

Interlibrary Loan is a free service available for current JCCC students, faculty, and staff.

The library is connected electronically to the collections of thousands of libraries across the country and the Interlibrary Loan staff is able to send requests to the locations owning material that are most likely to respond quickly and without charge to our requestors. 

Who can use Interlibrary Loan?

Who is Eligible to Use the Service?  JCCC Students, staff, faculty, and Johnson County residents in good standing with valid cards from Johnson County Community College Library may request either books or periodical articles through the Interlibrary Loan Department.
