Items that Cannot be Borrowed through Interlibrary Loan
It is at the lending library's discretion as to what is loaned to a borrowing library. Items which are not usually loaned include:
- Required Course Textbooks
- Whole issues of journals/magazines
- Reference books, rare books, and non-circulating books
- Audiovisual materials, genealogical, heraldic, or similar materials
Expected Delivery Time
- Book requests are typically ready to pick up within 5-7 business days.
- Copy requests are typically ready to download within 1-2 business days.
Loan Periods
For books, the loan period is determined by the lending library and can range from 30 days to 120 days. You can request a renewal in advance of the due date. However, the renewal request may be denied by the lending library.
You are responsible for any damage or for loss of the borrowed material while it is in your possession. If ILL materials are lost, damaged, or not returned, the owning library will submit an invoice for the replacement cost of each item. This cost will be billed to you.
Requesting Delivery
Faculty and staff may request to have Interlibrary Loan (ILL) materials delivered directly to their Daytona Beach campus office instead of picking them up at the library.
When materials are received from another library to fulfill an ILL request, an email is sent to the requesting patron advising them that their item is available at the library. Faculty and staff can reply to the email that they would like to have their items delivered.
The reply should include a contact phone number, building name, and office number (i.e., COAS 202) and an alternate delivery location if applicable (with admin, student assistant, etc.).
Materials are typically delivered on the same day or the following day, depending on staff availability and weather conditions. If the patron or their proxy are not available to accept delivery, the items will be returned to the library for the patron to pick up.
