Interlibrary Loan Service

Items not currently available at the Hawkeye Community College Library can be requested via interlibrary loan. The library pays the cost of borrowing books and obtaining periodical article photocopies from other libraries. Article copies typically arrive in 3-4 days; books normally arrive in 7-10 days and are usually available for 3-week use.

Don't forget to search the library catalog before using Interlibrary Loan.
