How can I request a book or dissertation from another Alliant library? (No charge).
Answer
Go to the library home page. Select Classic Catalog or search Encore.
Search for the book you want.
If the item is available, click on the "Request" button at the top or bottom of the page.
Enter your first name and your last name, with a space between your first name and last name.
Enter the 14-digit barcode or six-digit ID number. Do not use spaces or hyphens.
Click on "Submit". If you experience problems, go to the Log In FAQ.
If you need to select a particular volume click "submit" again and you should get a list of available volumes.
Dissertations published after 1996 may be available full-text through ProQuest Dissertations and Theses and through a link on the dissertation’s record in the catalog (Alliant dissertations and some theses only). To search ProQuest Dissertations and Theses on Databases link on Library’s home page and select the appropriate link from list.
Reference books, reserve items, some AV materials, and all assessment materials are not requestable.
