ARTH 2215: History of Graphic Design : Using Other Libraries

Interlibrary Loan (ILL)

Interlibrary Loan
Request books or articles not available in the NU Library’s collection, and we will attempt to borrow it for you from another library. The library will notify you when the requested book is ready for you to pick up at the Help and Information desk.

WorldCat (OCLC)
WorldCat Discovery is a worldwide catalog and discovery system. Search for a book, journal, newspaper, video, or document. It will tell you which libraries in North America (and worldwide) have the item available.
Northeastern affiliates on the Boston campus may use WorldCat Discovery to launch a request for items via interlibrary loan
