Borrowing Beyond Middlebury

Interlibrary Loan
If you find a book or article not listed in Middlebury's collection, you can request it through Interlibrary Loan. If we can find the item at another library then we'll get it for you. While most articles will be delivered to you digitally, books will be delivered to the library. (Please note that ILL books cannot be sent to other locations.)

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is the way we get books, articles, and other materials from other libraries for Middlebury students, faculty, and staff. You can make ILL requests using the link above and submitting publication information about the resource you are trying to access.
