Requesting Articles

To request articles login to ILLiad. If it is your first time logging in, you will need to add your information to your account. Here you will need to provide citation information for the item you are seeking. Please make sure to provide as complete a citation as possible, including journal title, article title, author, date published, pages and ISSN.

Most article requests are filled in less than 24 hours through consortiums and a program we use called RAPID. For RAPID to process article requests you MUST provide the journal’s ISSN. If you do not, it will be bounced back to us to complete and sent out again. This will delay the processing time for RAPID articles. You can find a journal’s ISSN using a search engine.

If the article is not available through RAPID we might able to request it from other libraries. This may increase the processing time.
