You may find out what magazines, books, etc. are in the Mundt Library by searching the Library Catalog. Distance students may request the Mundt Library to ship these items (or fax articles) to them by following the procedures for Interlibrary Loan described below.

Anything which the Mundt Library does not own can be requested through Interlibrary Loan.

~~ Distance students will receive their interlibrary loan requests by mail or fax directly from the Mundt Library.
~~ On-campus students will be notified by e-mail when items arrive and can pick them up at the front desk of the library.

To request Interlibrary Loan (and for distance students to request materials from the Mundt Library),

  • Fill out an "Interlibrary Loan Request Form" available in the Library

  • Or fill out the form on the Web (by clicking on the "Interlibrary Loan Forms" link on the Library’s homepage).

Interlibrary loan usually takes 7-14 days. Distance students should also factor in additional time for mailing.

*****

Distance students may learn more about library services offered to them by clicking on the "For Distance Students" link near the top of the library homepage (http://www.departments.dsu.edu/library).
