Distance Learning Library Resources: 5. Interlibrary Loan

ABL Resources for faculty, staff and students involved in the QU Online Program.

Distance Learning Students (Online Students)

The Arnold Bernhard Library will assist Distance Learning (Online Students) with any articles that can be delivered electronically to your email account.  Just as you would submit a request for something that we don't own, you can also receive articles that Quinnipiac owns in paper format by filling out an Interlibrary Loan request.  The articles will be delivered to your email account.

Due to time constraints we are unable to borrow physical books.  If you need a book, please visit your local public library and request the item through their Interlibrary Loan Department.  Remember that their delivery times may differ from ours so start your research early.

Interlibrary Loan

If you need a journal article that is not held by Quinnipiac University, you may request it through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). 

The service is free. 

ILL requests should be submitted online from the Interlibrary Loan page.   

If you are on the Library homepage,  the link to Interlibrary Loan is on the left or under Services at the bottom of the page.

Digital copies of articles usually arrive within a few days but might take longer.

Articles in PDF format will be sent to your QU email.
