About Interlibrary Loan.
- Request Interlibrary Loan when you need materials that are not available in
the Mundt Library and are not accessible online. Interlibrary Loan is a
service in which libraries borrow and loan materials to other libraries.
- Distance students may use the Interlibrary Loan forms to
request all materials -- whether in the Mundt Library or in another
library.
- Only Dakota State University students, faculty and staff
may use the Interlibrary Loan Services of the Mundt Library. See eligibility guidelines for more
about eligibility.
There is no charge for this service.

Turnaround time.
- All
requests are sent out within one workday (Monday-Friday, excluding
holidays).
- We
cannot guarantee when items will be received because that depends on the
loaning library (item availability; speed of response) and delivery method
(electronic, postal mail, courier).
- Books
may be received as quickly as 3 days but are likely to take 7-14
days. Hard to obtain items
can take longer.
- Some
articles may be received within 24 hours if the loaning library
responds immediately and delivers electronically. But articles, too, are
likely to take 7-14 days. Hard to obtain items can take longer.
- What
you enter on the request form in response to
"I don't need this item after (enter date in format mm/dd/yy)"
is important. We will stop trying to get the requested item on that date.
To request material,
- fill out one of the following three forms for each item you wish to
borrow.
Book Request Form
Article Request Form
ERIC Document Request Form
- OR, when searching in South Dakota Library Network databases,
look for the "Submit ILL
Request" button. It will be found on the screen
describing the item and can be used to submit your
Interlibrary Loan request.
- You will be
notified by e-mail when the material arrives.
