Finding Books
Obtaining Books Not Owned by USM Libraries
If the book you want is not owned by a USM library, you can request the book through the ILS interlibrary loan service. Fill out the Web-based form to request books. For more information about this service, see the section on Interlibrary Loan Services on the ILS Web page. If you are not able to find material in a library near you or pick up the book in Adelphi, ILS can supply book table-of-contents and book chapters (as long as they comprise less than 20% of the entire book) as a PDF file electronically. Alternately, you may wish to submit an Interlibrary Loan request through your local public library.
