A list of all items you request can be monitored through your Novanet Account.
If there's an item that can't be found by searching Novanet, you can fill out the request form for an Interlibrary Loan.
A confirmation number will be generated and emailed to the registered email.
Because this will come from any number of libraries from around the world, there is no average estimated time of arrival, but patrons can expect a minimum of two weeks before receiving a confirmation email to pick up the item.
If you require an item urgently or have any questions regarding the forms or submitting requests, please contact the circulation desk staff at the Library
Interlibrary Loans and Document Delivery from outside the Novanet Consortium are limited only to current students, faculty and staff at this time.
University of King’s College Library Interlibrary Loan Services uses the Relais Enterprise system and is a member of the Council of Atlantic University Libraries (CAUL). Requests are preferred in machine readable format (i.e. Docline, Relais, VDX, Amicus). Requests via email, fax and mail are accepted, but libraries using these methods to request regularly from the Library will be asked to use the CAUL web forms. Login information will be provided.
Select the List All, List Open or Query options from the login screen or from the buttons at the top of the request forms. “List All” lists all submitted requests, “List Open” lists all incomplete requests and “Query” allows you to look at the detailed status of any particular request. Please note that many of the entries in the status log are system generated and may require staff assistance to interpret. If you need any assistance reading the log please contact Interlibrary Loan staff.
Use the buttons at the bottom of the Request Status page to send renewal, cancellation or general messages to the Interlibrary Loan staff.
