The normal turnaround time for Interlibrary Loan (ILL) requests is 1-2 weeks for print books, and 2-3 days for articles.

Many factors play a part in how long it takes an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) request to be processed. Factors include how many libraries will lend the item, where the lending libraries are located, and the lending library’s willingness or ability to fill the request, etc. It is essential that borrowers submit Interlibrary Loan (ILL) requests early enough to allow enough time for materials to arrive. Incomplete and/or inaccurate citations often slow processing time. Users should consult a Librarian for help completing citations.
