What is Interlibrary Loan (ILL) and ILL@UMKC?
If the materials you need are not held by the UMKC University Libraries, the libraries will try to borrow or photocopy the material from another library through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). ILL is the borrowing and lending of materials between libraries, and ILL@UMKC is the system you use to place and manage your requests. This service is available to currently enrolled UMKC students, faculty and staff, and members of the Community Information Program. Requested items may be available in as few as three days or as many as twenty one days. Every effort is made to ensure the shortest possible receipt time.
