Interlibrary Loan Information for Other Libraries

Kent State University Libraries lends materials to other libraries all over the world. Our fee schedule is as follows:  

• $15 per loan or copy for academic, public, research, museum, or non-profit libraries  
• $25 per loan or copy for for-profit institutions 

We are part of OhioLINK and the IDS Project. Reciprocal agreements are considered for similar size and type libraries. We will provide free copies to libraries at HBCUs and tribal colleges if you let us know your library falls in one of these categories. 

Kent State currently accepts requests through the OCLC ILL subsystem (symbol KSU), ILLiad, email, fax, or ALA/IFLA forms. We encourage other libraries who do not use OCLC to submit their requests via ILLiad using the login box below. If your library does not have an account, you may create one by clicking on the first time user from another library link.

Our loan period is twelve weeks and renewals are frequently available upon request. We loan microforms held in on-site or remote storage, and we can provide ERIC microfiche. We lend or digitize our dissertations and theses upon request. We are often unable to lend certain materials, including audiovisual materials. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.
