This free service allows you to request that circulating items from any UConn campus library (Storrs, Avery Point, Stamford, Torrington, Waterbury, or Greater Hartford) be pulled and held for pickup at the circulation desk of your choice.

This service is available to UConn faculty, staff, and currently enrolled students, as well as current community borrowers.

In order to place requests, we ask that you first create a profile in ILLiad, if you have not already done so. This will allow us to transfer any unfilled requests (e.g. we can't find the item you want on our shelf) directly into ILLiad to be filled through Interlibrary Loan. It will also allow you to place requests, using your NetID and self-chosen password, from any UConn database or directly from ILLiad. Create your profile here.

Locate the item you want in UConn WorldCat or HOMER, and simply click on the Request Item button.

Most materials can be requested. Items that are not requestable include Reference, Special Collections (Dodd), Reserve, journals, and other non-circulating materials. Library gadgets (iPads, Kindles, laptops, cameras, and digital voice recorders) are also excluded from this service); more information on gadget loans can be found here.

Items that must be shipped from a different library will take approximately 1-3 business days. Items held at your own library will be available in 1 business day. If the item is not found on the shelf, the request will automatically be forwarded to Interlibrary Loan to be filled (exception: community borrowers are not eligible for interlibrary loan service).

You will receive an email when your item becomes available.

Your item will remain on hold for one week.

Note: Leisure Reading books are not renewable.

If the item you want is checked out, you can request the item via Interlibrary Loan or recall the item. (Exception: community borrowers are not eligible for interlibrary loan service.).
