Interlibrary Loan
North Carolina State Agency Staff
Items may be borrowed for work-related purposes by North Carolina state agency staff. While free lenders are always searched first, other libraries often charge for photocopies of journal articles. That cost is transferred to the requester or his/her agency. For this reason, please indicate the maximum acceptable charge for requested items when placing a request.
Items may be requested via the Interlibrary Loan Request Form.
