FAQs

Can I borrow an ebook through ILL?

Because of the way digital resources are licensed, it is not possible to borrow ebooks via ILL.

Colgate faculty/staff and students can request purchase of an ebook (see the Purchase Request page of this guide), but this is not a guarantee that the library will acquire the resource.

How do I check on the status of my ILL request?

The status of ILL requests is displayed in your ILL account under the Outstanding Requests tab. For more specific questions/concerns regarding ILL, contact ILL coordinators Lisa King or Darlene Virgil.
