Borrowing Policies for Interlibrary Loan:
Interlibrary loan (ILL)/document delivery (DD) enables patrons to obtain materials not owned by Mabee Library. Patrons must have a WUID (iCard) or Guest Borrower's Card before initiating a loan request.
It is the policy of Mabee Library not to interlibrary loan textbooks adopted for classroom use.
Interlibrary loans and document delivery are free to Washburn faculty, staff, administrators, and students. Only on rare occasions will reimbursement be requested. Lost materials are subject to the rules and regulations of the lending library.
Always make sure the material is not owned by Mabee Library before submitting a request. Check the Library Catalog OR Fulltext Electronic Journal Holdings.
