Most of the costs incurred through postage, insurance, and OCLC charges are paid by the library as a service to the Lyon College community.
The length of time to get your materials depends on the location of the lending library and the method of delivery. Times vary from 10 to 14 days. Check with the librarian if you feel your requests aren't coming quickly enough.
Incomplete information takes longer because staff has to contact you and find out the rest of the information before they’ll order it.
The interlibrary loan department will contact you when items are ready to be picked up. Please return ILL books by the designated due date to the library front desk. You can request one renewal by emailing ill@Lyon.edu.
Most lending periods are one month. The lending library determines the loan period for books and media, along with any restriction on the use of materials. Due dates are posted on each borrowed item. Request a renewal by contacting ill@lyon.edu.
Abuse of interlibrary loan policies (i.e. repeated late return, or failure to retrieve requested items) may result in the blocking of your interlibrary loan use.
If we can’t get any of the below, we’ll contact you. Sometimes libraries let these out, but most of the time, they don’t.
