Book Requests from Another Library

The status of your requests will appear in your ILLiad account in the Review Requests section after they have been generated.

You will receive an e-mail notice when your book comes in.

All books can be picked up at the Circulation Desk in the BUL and returned to the BUL drop boxes when finished or due.You can keep a book from another library for 3 weeks on average, but it may vary by library.

• The due date will be on a sleeve attached to the cover of the book. Please leave this sleeve on the book.
• PLEASE return books on time to help us maintain good relations with the lending libraries.

If your request has been canceled, you will get an email in your Bethel account saying the request has been canceled and why (couldn't meet the deadline, couldn't be located within our lending region, etc.)

Renewals

Many books, but not all, can be renewed.

Interlibrary Loan books require contact with the lending library. You must request renewals BEFORE the due date. Most libraries will not consider a renewal request past the due date.

Please bring the book to the Circulation Desk a day or two before your due date, and ask for Betty Bond (the Interlibrary Loan Supervisor). If she is not in the Library, leave the book with your phone number and your requested renewal time (how long you would reasonably like to keep the book). She will contact you with renewal results within 1-2 days.
