Davis, UC system libraries, or other libraries around the world via <span class="heading--weighted--weighted">interlibrary loan</span></h2> <p>Even with more than 10 million items in the UC Davis Library or stored at one of the two <a href="https://library.ucdavis.edu/request-books-and-articles/regional-library-facilities/">UC-system storage facilities</a>, users still find need for materials not available in our collections. The library’s Interlibrary Loan service borrows materials from other libraries around the world for UC Davis faculty, staff, and students to support university research, teaching, coursework, and patient care needs.</p> <p>In addition to borrowing items from other libraries, Interlibrary Loan is also able to scan copies of physical articles and chapters to provide digital access to the things you need.</p> <p>We recommend getting familiar with our <a href="https://library.ucdavis.edu/request-books-and-articles/interlibrary-loan-policies/" data-type="page" data-id="5595">Interlibrary Loan policies</a> before initiating a request for items at another institution.</p> <h2 class='heading--underline' >How to Make a Request</h2> <p>In order to access all available search results and make requests, users should sign-in to their library account before searching <a href="https://search.library.ucdavis.edu/discovery/search?vid=01UCD_INST:UCD&lang=en&query=&mode=advanced&tab=UCSILSDefaultSearch&search_scope=DN_and_CI&displayMode=full&bulkSize=10&highlight=true&dum=true&displayField=all">UC Library Search</a> or a <a href="https://ucdavis.libguides.com/az.php">licensed library database</a> to search for materials.</p> <h3 class='heading--highlight' >Materials Owned by UC Davis</h3> <p>If UC Davis owns the physical item that you need, use the <strong>“UCD request”</strong> link in <a href="https://search.library.ucdavis.edu/discovery/search?vid=01UCD_INST:UCD">UC Library Search</a>. This link lets you request UC Davis-owned books, journal volumes, and media. </p> <p>If the UC Davis-owned copy is unavailable, click the link to <strong>“Request through Interlibrary Loan”</strong> instead. <em>UC Davis items that are on loan are not currently being recalled so requesting these materials via Interlibrary Loan will provide the speediest turnaround.</em></p> <p>If the item that you need is on the shelf here at UC Davis, it’ll be pulled by library staff and placed on a library hold shelf for more convenient pick-up. These items are generally available for pick-up within 2-3 business days. These items may also be delivered via the library’s <a href="https://library.ucdavis.edu/request-books-and-articles/shipping-service/" data-type="URL"
