ILLiad FAQ

Interlibrary Loan Service:

  • is available only to current UMBC faculty, students and staff.
  • Users must be registered at Circulation before ILL requests will be processed.
  • The Interlibrary Loan Service allows patrons to request materials and books needed for their research, that are not owned by UMBC.
  • Books owned by USMAI libraries (University System of Maryland and Affiliated Institutions) must be obtained through catalogusmai.
  • If you forget your ILLiad password, contact the ILL office between the hours of 8:00am-4:30pm, Monday through Friday and we will assign you a new temporary one. Leave a message or send an email over weekends and we will change your password on the next business day.
  • Although Interlibrary Loan gives you access to many more resources, it may take longer than other means of access. The average delivery time is 5-10 business days. Always start your research early for the best results. You may want to contact the Reference Desk for assistance in locating other in-house or online materials.

All charges must be paid by check.
