How to order an item from the British Library
(Inter-Library Loans)
Inter
Library Loan book request form
Inter Library
Loan journal request form
There is a £2.50 non refundable charge for
each Inter-Library Loan. So it is important that before
you order a book or a journal article on Inter-Library Loan
that you ensure you have checked the web
catalogue or journals title search
box to ensure that the item is not held by either
Learning Resource Centre.
Please also check that the information
you provide is accurate as this will ensure you get the item
you need as quickly as possible.
How long does it take?
We will process your request quickly.
Journal articles can usually be obtained within 48 hours.
However we may be in a queue for the book you want and so
it is hard to give an estimate of time. As a result it is
important that you plan your research and do things in good
time. This will ensure you make the most of the
service
How long can I keep the item
for?
Books are generally loaned for a
period of 3 weeks from the date the LRC receives the
book. It may not be possible to renew Inter-Library Loans and
so it is important that you use the book immediately. Journal
articles usually are in the form of a photocopy and so you can keep
the article.
How will I know when the item has arrived?
We will let you know when the item is at the Learning Resource
Centre. Like other books you will be informed when it needs
returning. Please respect this as Inter Library Loans fines
are high.
