Whittemore Library: Library Collections: If we DON'T have a book or article you want

Check the other Minuteman Library Network Libraries

Minuteman Library Network Catalog:
-- Run your search; if FSU does not own something you want, but another Minuteman Library does, when looking at an individual search result record, simply click the 'hold' button to request that it be checked out to you and quickly sent to the Whittemore Library for you to pick up.

Our Tipasa Interlibrary Loan (ILL) Service
-- The first time you go there, you'll quickly create your own personal Tipasa ILL account page
-- Thereafter, you'll go there to place or manage new ILL requests
-- You will receive email notifications when materials you requested arrive
-- PDFs of articles tend to be pretty quick (a few to several days); but books need time to arrive by USPS mail (on average a few days to a week or more); please plan accordingly

Check MA's Commnwealth Catalog for it
-- Search a statewide library catalog
-- Borrow and request delivery of books from outside the Minuteman network, but still in MA
Check WorldCat for it
-- Search a world-wide (literally) library catalog
-- Feel free to use Tipasa to make an Interlibrary loan request for any items you may find there.
