Interlibrary Loans

The Access Pennsylvania Catalog and ILL (Interlibrary Loan) System is a coordinated resource-sharing program. Through this program, libraries throughout Pennsylvania share books, eBooks, periodicals, and DVDs, so that you can have access to library's collections all over Pennsylvania. 

​

Since April 2002, more than 1.9 million items have been loaned to readers all over Pennsylvania.

​

If you can't find the book or movie you want within your county's libraries, search here! Another Pennsylvania library may have just what you want.

​

If you have questions about ILL's, please read the FAQs below.
