Inter-Library Loans
(New England Law faculty, staff, and students only)
- Worldcat - Select Worldcat as the database, then "Advanced Search" for best results. You will be able to tell from the record if the book or journal title is in our library. If it is not, the record will have a link to "borrow this item from another library".
- Journal Locator: Search for online source here before ordering it via ILL - If you know the cite you need, before you submit an ILL request look in our Journal Locator, Serials Solution (E-journals from the library sidebar): Click on the first letter of the journal name and scan the results for it. Following that link will usually take you to a search screen where you can put in other information known, i.e. author, article title, or volume/page/year. If you are not physically in the library, you may need to have the barcode from your New England Law ID available to logon.
