How do I get a book or article Lesley does not own?

If Lesley does not have what you need, request it through interlibrary loan (ILL): the library asks another library to send it.

• Search the Lesley catalog first, then the Fenway Libraries Organization catalog and the Commonwealth Catalog, as described on the borrowing page.
• Other libraries generally loan print books, but not ebooks. For articles and book chapters, they generally send PDF scans.
• If the library does not own a title at all, you can also ask the library to consider purchasing it — note that the library cannot purchase textbooks.
