BOOK CHAPTERS:

• InterLibrary Loan or ILL is a service that allows you to request materials owned by other libraries all over the US. Watch this video  for more information and a complete walkthrough. 
• Document Delivery is a service that allows you to request a scan of materials owned by the Holy Cross Libraries. To find books or journals for Document Delivery, search the catalog as normal. Document Delivery requests follow the same process as Interlibrary Loan requests. 

Requesting Book Chapters: 

To request a book chapter on Interlibrary Loan or Document Delivery, log into the Interlibrary Loan system....

Use your Google username and password to log-in (the same as you use for your Holy Cross email).

Once you have logged in, choose "Book Chapter" under the appropriate menu: 

Then, fill out the request form. A good rule of thumb is to include at least the information you would need to cite the chapter, if possible (chapter and book author, chapter and book title, date of publication, publisher, and, ideally, page numbers). The more information you include, the more easily and quickly our staff will be able to place your request. 

Once your request has been fulfilled, you will receive a notification and link to your Holy Cross email.
