Chemistry 260-Introduction to Inorganic Chemistry: Borrowing Library Material

Borrow from Andersen Library

To borrow material from Andersen Library, just bring your HawkCard with you and bring your items to the Circulation Desk to check them out.

See the chart for Loan Periods and Renewals.

Getting Materials from Other Libraries

If your UWW campus library does not have the item you need, or if it has already been checked out by someone else, the library can usually obtain the item for you from another library, using either UW Request or ILLiad interlibrary loan. Which service to use depends upon the resource you wish to borrow. For assistance, please contact a reference librarian.

UW Request and Request from other UW System Libraries
Use to borrow "returnable" materials such as books, videos, and government documents--if not available at the UWW library you use--from other UW System Libraries. It cannot be used to borrow non-circulating items (such as reference books or books on course reserve) or articles from periodicals or journals. UW Request is free, and materials arrive within 2-5 weekdays. For more information, and for instructions on use, go to our How to Borrow From Other Libraries: UW Request web page.

 

Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad)
BORROWING PHYSICAL ITEMS IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE
BORROWING PDFs OF ARTICLES AND CHAPTERS IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE

Use to request scans of articles from newspapers, journals, and magazines not available at your UWW library. Also use to borrow books and other materials if not available at your UWW library or through UW Request (non-circulating items like reference books cannot be borrowed). This service is also free. Approximate turnaround time is 2-4 weekdays for articles; 5-7 weekdays for most other items. For more information, and for instructions on use, go to the Interlibrary Loan service web page.
