Q. What can I do if the library doesn't have the book I need?

If we don't have an item you need, we can try to get it via Interlibrary Loan (ILL). ILL services are available to all current UNM students, staff, and faculty, and can be utilized to:

• Request journal articles and book chapters. These are sent digitally as a PDF or HTML file to your UNM email, usually within 2-3 working days.
• Request print material from other libraries. Deliveries take 4-10 working days depending on availability.

You can also request that the libraries purchase an item. See more info about purchase requests here.

ILL services are not available for community members. Please contact the Albuquerque Public Library for interlibrary loan services. You can view their ILL policies here.
