How can I borrow an item that is not owned by the Drexel Libraries?

How can I request and borrow an item such as a book/journal article/etc. that isn't owned by the Drexel Libraries? How can I read an article the library does not have access to?


Items that are not owned by the Drexel Libraries can typically be obtained by placing an interlibrary loan request through E-ZBorrow (for physical books or DVDs) or ILLiad (for books, DVDs, book chapters, journal articles etc.).

If you find an article that is not accessible online through the Libraries catalog, you can place an interlibrary loan request via our website. (See the FAQ on requesting an article using ILLiad.) If this is your first time using this service, you will need to provide some basic information about yourself after you login.

If you have any questions about interlibrary loan or need more assistance, please email us at ResourceSharing@drexel.libanswers.com.
