Cornell-in-Washington: Requesting items

• You can request available books from the Ithaca campus library. From the library catalog record,  select the Request link, and then select Cornell-in-Washington for the campus location.
• If an item is checked out, you may be able to request a Recall of the item, however this can take several weeks. From the library record, scroll down to select Request, then select Recall, and Cornell-in-Washington for delivery location.
• You can request electronic delivery of articles that are not available at the Cornell Library, via Interlibrary Loan. You will receive the article via email within 1-3 days.
• If there is a chapter within a book, or an article in a print,only journal held in the stacks, you can request Document Delivery.

Unfortunately, we are not able to provide BorrowDirect to the Cornell-in-Washington center.

If you have not yet signed up for Interlibrary Loan, you will be prompted to register. The form requests a 9-digit student ID number. You will need to enter zeros ahead of your ID number to equal 9-digits.

Once this is done, you won't have to do it again. When you are searching a library database, look for the Get it! Cornell link. If we don't have the article, you can place a request via Interlibrary Loan.

Sign up! You'll be glad you did.
