InterLibrary Loan

Need a book or an article that our library does not own? You can complete an Interlibrary Loan Request Form and staff will make every effort to locate the item. The library will attempt to borrow the item from another library system. If the item is unavailable through Interlibrary Loan, it will be considered for purchase. Interlibrary Loan is a library service that enables us to borrow and lend materials to libraries outside the Chattahoochee Valley Regional Library System.

Please follow these steps when making a request:

1. Check CVRLS’ catalog to see if we own the item(s). Library staff will be happy to help you with this search.
2. If we do not own the item or if the last copy is missing, fill out the Interlibrary Loan Request Form and submit via Email.
3. In the Origin field, select which branch you would like to pick up your ILL.
4. If you are interested in renewing an item, please call the ILL department.

If another library is able to fill the request, it normally takes two weeks to arrive. Since items are borrowed from other libraries, it is imperative that items are returned on the due date. If items are not returned, patrons will be charged the cost of the item(s).

For more information, please contact Mrs. Henry at 706-243-2683.
