Inter Library Loans and Document Supply: Inter library loans

What does the Inter-Library Loan and Document Supply Service provide?

If the material you require for your studies or research is not held by the Sheppard Library or available via its electronic resources, the Inter-Library Loan and Document Supply Service is here to help you. We work with the British Library and other University libraries both in the UK and abroad, to obtain the books or articles you require.

The service is available to all registered Middlesex University students and UK staff with a current library registration.
