Introducing ILLiad online

So what exactly is ILLiad?  ILLiad is an online version of the Interlibrary loan process. OK, so what is Interlibrary loan? Interlibrary loan is the ability to request from a library, other than the library you are in, materials you wish to read or review.  Using the old methodology you would have to fill out paper forms at the Reference desk and submit your requests through Reference. Now you are able to fill out a request from the comfort of your home or work computer. The back end process remains the same, but the front end is streamlined for your convenience. 

In order to reach the Interlibrary loan system, log onto myDCC, head to the Library tab, and select the channel that is on the right hand side of the screen labeled Interlibrary Loan.  When prompted for a username, enter your myDCC credentials again.  There is a brief form with contact information that you need to fill out once, but after that you simply log on to review  or submit your requests, both past and present. Any questions?  Please feel free to contact the Reference desk at 845-431-8637.
