Interlibrary Loan

If we don't have the article you're searching for, our Resource Sharing team will find a library that has the article and get a PDF copy to you as soon as possible through Interlibrary Loan (ILL)! This is a free service for Clemson students, faculty, and staff. 

You'll log in to your ILLiad account with your Clemson username and password. If it's your first time, you'll need to give us a little extra info.


Submitting Requests & Getting Help

Interlibrary Loan Requests can be placed by logging into your ILLiad account and submitting all required information for the item being requested. 

Use Worldcat to search for the article you're looking for, click the title, and then click "Request if not held by Clemson." This method will auto-populate all information fields required without having to manually enter it

Electronic material, such as journal articles, takes 2 to 3 days to arrive. Books and other material that must be mailed take 1 to 2 weeks.

For questions about additional resources or the status of your request, please see our Policies page or email CU-RSTEAM@LISTS.CLEMSON.EDU
