Resources on how to access books for our library book club!

April 2025: Catalina

Library Borrowing Options

Holy Cross Libraries

If you would like to get Catalina through Holy Cross Libraries, there are two options: Through our collection and through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). We have one print copy of the book. For additional print copies, we recommend using ILL or some of the other options on this page.

Interlibrary Loan

Follow the link below to your Interlibrary Loan account. If it is your first time using ILL, you will need to complete your account details. After that, look in the menu on the left side of the home screen for where it says "ILL Request." Click on "Book." You will see a form to enter in the book details. Enter the following details in the appropriate fields (rows that are highlighted are required/recommended for easier processing of your request):
