 Services for Cohort Students: Placing Requests

As of August 15th 2005, all cohort students must use the ILLiad service to request books, articles or microfiches regardless of the location.

  • If you cannot obtain your material full text online, you do not need to determine whether Loyola Libraries have the print format any longer. The Cohort staff will make the determination and treat your requests accordingly.
  • You will need to create an account with ILLiad. This is a one time registration process, the password will not expire. In addition ILLiad lets you keep track of your requests and keeps a history of your transactions.

We hope this will make the whole process smoother for you. If you have any questions please contact your Interlibrary Loan librarian: Jennifer Stegen 773-508-6022


Recalling a book:

Use this form to request that a checked-out item be returned. Choosing "recall" will change the due date to within 2 weeks. If you don't need it right away you may want to note "HOLD" in the "Additional Information about this request" area at the bottom of the form. The book will not be renewed and will be held for you as soon as it is returned


Receiving and Returning Library Materials

  • Requested library materials will be mailed to the address indicated by the patron on the request forms.
  • Journal articles are copied and do not need to be returned. Bound journals will not be sent.
  • Books will be stamped with a due date or include a sheet with the due date. The patron will be responsible for the timely and safe return of library materials, regardless of the return method chosen.
  • ERIC fiche longer than 12 pages will not be copied. Instead, you will receive the original microfiche with a due date. Please return the fiche as you would with the books.
  • Library materials are subject to all standard library policies, including recalls after 10 days.
  • Patrons can return materials in person, US Mail, or other delivery service.

Interlibrary Loan Materials

  • Interlibrary loan materials will arrive with a paper band around the front cover of the book/dissertation.
  • Any restrictions, such as NO RENEWALS, will be highlighted.
  • The due date on the paper band is the date the book is due back at the Lewis Library. Please allow plenty of time if you are mailing materials back to the library.
  • Some materials may be LIBRARY USE ONLY so you may need to visit the Lewis Library in order to use these materials.
  • Materials received through interlibrary loan must be returned on time to ensure good standing with the owning library.

Renewing Books

  • Try renewing your books online first before the due date. This page will let you renew books from Loyola Libraries.
  • To renew books from another university use your ILLiad account.
  • Phone renewals will be allowed as appropriate. Please contact the Interlibrary Loan Librarian, Jennifer Stegen, at 773-508-6022 to have materials renewed.
  • When calling to renew materials, please have your Loyola University ID and books in your possession.
