Libraries

Welcome to Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery

Interlibrary loan service allows our patrons to obtain books and articles not held in the University of Alberta library system. We can get items from other Canadian libraries, the United States and internationally.

Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery is available to University of Alberta primary users (students, faculty and staff) to obtain materials not owned by the University of Alberta from another library or supplier. The service is free to our primary users with a valid ONECard.
