Interlibrary Loan

Print

The Law Library provides interlibrary loan service for law students and law faculty. Before submitting an ILL request, you must first check Minerva, the U of L online catalog, If Minerva does not show, the item you need, we will try to borrow it from a library in a neighboring city through ILL.


Law faculty and law students may request our interlibrary loan service by filling out an ILL form at the Circulation/Reference Desk. It is important for you to fill out the form accurately and completely so that we can obtain the book or article you need. Filling an ILL request usually takes two to three weeks. We will notify you when the item arrives. When you come to pick up the ILL item we will tell you when you must return it. (Generally, ILL items are due two weeks from the day they arrive at the Law Library and may not be renewed.)


NOTE: Non-law faculty and students should submit ILL requests to Ekstrom Library through ILLiad, the online interlibrary loan management system. To find ILLiad, go to http://library.louisville.edu/ill . Non-U of L library users should submit ILL requests to ILL at the Louisville Free Public Library.
