We have upgraded our resource sharing interface. Now, all of our resource sharing options work directly from the library catalog. You can request resources you find in CentralSearch with the click of a single button on the item record. You can also request items that do not appear in the library catalog via a blank ILL form built into CentralSearch. You no longer need to sign-up for an ILLiad account or remember which resource sharing option to use for different materials. This request process uses your CCSU email login and automatically pushes your request into the most efficient lending provider available.
Please visit the ILLiad to CentralSearch Migration page for more information.

The delivery time for an interlibrary loan item depends on what the item is and where it is coming from. Requests for articles are generally filled within a day or less, but books and media can take up to 7-10 days. In rare cases, we need to get items from overseas, and those items can take much longer to arrive.
