Choose the At OSU Libraries only scope to search all of the OSU Libraries collections.  This includes Vet Med, Valley, Guin and OSU Cascades. This option is available after you enter your initial search terms. If you need a book from Valley, Guin or OSU Cascades, look at the request options. You can have Valley, Guin or OSU Cascades items placed on hold and pick them up at Valley.  Items at McDowell Library are for use in the library only. Anyone can access McDowell Library Monday - Friday from 8am - 5pm.  If you are affiliated with the College of Veterinary medicine, you have 24/7 access. Confused?  Ask Mary and she can help negotiate the options with you.

You can request a book from another library if the OSU Libraries' copy is checked out or if we don't own a copy.

If the availability of the items says Check for available services, that means we either do not own the item or it is currently checked out.

Click on Check for available services

• If the book is available in Summit (our Washington-Oregon-Idaho) consortium, you will see a Place Summit request link in the How to get it section. Click on the link and select a pick-up location.

• If the book is not available from an OSU or Summit library, you can request to borrow a copy from another library using Interlibrary Loan. If this is your first time placing an interlibrary loan request, you will need to register for an account. Choose New Request/Book Physical Item to fill out the form to request a book. You do not need to know where the book is located. The Interlibrary Loan staff figure that out for you! You will receive an email notification when your book arrives.
