Interlibrary loans

På svenska

Students and staff of the Faculty of Science can request an interlibrary loan if the material you need for your studies or research is not available from Lund University Libraries. When you request an interlibrary loan, the material is ordered from another library.

Before you request an interlibrary loan

Before you request an interlibrary loan, remember to check that the item you require is not already available in the Lund University Libraries.

Search and find books in the library catalogue LUBcat or use the search tool LUBsearch.

If the item is in the Lund University Libraries, borrow or order it instead of requesting an interlibrary loan.

Search and find journals in the library catalogue LUBcat or use the ePublications search tool. Search and find articles in print journals available at the University Library in the Lubito database. Search and find the journal in Lubito, use the form to request the article, and the PDF will be sent to your email address within 3 days.
