The ILL Office will be closed for Winter Break from December 21 - January 5th, and will reopen on January 6th. You may place requests as normal during this time, and they will be processed in the order received when we return.

The Interlibrary Loan service allows Auraria campus students, faculty, and staff to request to borrow books, articles and other materials not owned, or not available, at Auraria Library. The Library taps a nation-wide network to borrow needed items. In most cases, articles and book chapters are delivered electronically to your ILL account. Physical items (print books, DVDs, etc.) will be delivered to Auraria Library’s Ask Us desk for pick up.
