Interlibrary Loan

Interlibrary Loan service is available free of charge to all library borrowers in good standing. A limit of 2 requests per borrower is enforced with the exception of home schooling, in which the limit is 5 requests per family. New card holders may use the Interlibrary Loan service after one checkout if items are returned in a timely manner and undamaged. 

If the requested item is outside the state of Kentucky the borrow must be willing to pay postage. Borrowers will be notified via telephone when the Interlibrary Loan item is ready for pickup. 

The following types of materials are not available through ILL: new books, DVDs, recorded books, textbooks, music recordings, feature films, microfilm, reference, and genealogy materials. 

LOAN PERIODS AND RESTRICTIONS

For items borrowed from another library, the length of the loan period and any restrictions are determined by the lending library.

RENEWALS

Borrowers may request a renewal for each item borrowed unless the lending library indicates no renewals are accepted. Borrowers must request renewal 2 days before the item is due. 

DAMAGED OR LOS INTERLIBRARY MATERIAL

Borrowers are responsible for loss, damage, and associated cost or fees while materials are in their possession. 

SUSPENSION OF INTERLIBRARY LOAN PRIVILEGES

The library reserves the right to suspend Interlibrary Loan privileges for any reason. Privileges will be suspended under the following conditions:
  • Borrowers with overdue Interlibrary Loan materials
  • Borrowers who habitually return Interlibrary Loan materials late
  • Borrowers who habitually do not pick up Interlibrary Loan materials
  • Borrowers who have a blocked status
