Full Text via Interlibrary Loan

  • The Interlibrary Loan (ILL) service allows CNU students, faculty, and staff to request materials (articles, books, etc.) not available in Trible library
  • All you need to do is login & fill out the request form
  • Your login is the same as your CNU Connect (email) login & password

Tip: If you can find it in WorldCat Discovery the system can fill the form out for you

  • Other databases may have this option available as well. Look for a link or button that says

ILL at CNU or Interlibrary Loan

 

Go to another library

Do you want to get the article or book yourself? 

Try going to another library car

Check the library's holdings on their webpage or via WorldCat Discovery

You may wish to call the library to be sure the information is correct and find out what you need to make a copy or get a card (cash? coins? buy a printing card? proof of identity? etc.)

 

Get a VTC card at Trible library's Circulation desk before you go!

VTC symbol

 

  • This is mainly to allow you to check out books, but it is better to have it in case you find you need it, rather than be there and wish you had it.
  • You will need to take this card as well as your CNU ID Card with you when you go.
