What if I need a source but the Library doesn't have it?

When you're trying to access a source and you hit a paywall, STOP. You can request it through interlibrary loan (ILL)!

Interlibrary Loan is a service through which you can request research materials, such as books, journal articles, book chapters, videos, and other materials that are not available at our library.

When you are searching in Library databases, look for a link that says "search for full text" - from there you will be connected to the Library catalog and prompted to "Request from Another Library." After you have placed your request, you will be notified by email when your requested item is available.
