UO is a member of the Orbis Cascade Alliance. Summit is the borrowing program used to request items through that consortium. Summit libraries lend print items and some audio/visual materials to each other.
ILL: Current UO students, faculty, staff, Oregon Card holders, members of the UO Alumni Association, and UO Associates
Summit: Current UO and Summit library students, faculty, and staff
Articles found in databases: Use the "Find Text" button.
If you have a citation and need a blank form to make your request, log into your ILLiad account, select the format of the item (book, article, etc.) and then fill out the forms.
ILL: Students, faculty, and staff: usually, there is no charge
for borrowing books and obtaining journal articles. If the lending library does charge a fee,
you will be contacted before items are requested. Oregon Card, members of the UO Alumni Association, and UO Associates: $15 per successful request plus copyright fees and any fees charged by the lending library. (See Interlibrary Loan Privileges for Non-UO Borrowers.)
Summit: no fee
Overdue fines and lost item charges apply to everyone.
ILL print and A-V items: an average of 10 days. Items can come in as few as three days or they may take longer, depending on the location of the library from which they were requested.
ILL articles: an average of three days.
Summit: an average of four days.
ILL: Login to your ILLiad account. If you see "request sent" it means that UO library staff have placed the request, not that the lending library has shipped the item. Also, you can contact ILL staff at the library.
Summit: Login to your Summit Account. If the item has been received at the library, you can also login to your UO Library account.
ILL items are checked out in ILLiad, and Summit and UO materials are checked out in the local system. Since they're two different systems you need to look in your two different accounts.
You will receive an email notice telling you where the item is being held for you, or that an electronic article is available and how you can get it.
Due dates for ILL items are set by the lending libraries. Log into your ILLiad account, bring up the record for the checked out item, and click on the "renew request" button. If no renewal button appears, this item cannot be renewed. You may request a renewal seven days before the due date.
Summit loans are for either six weeks or six days (depending on the material) and no renewals area allowed. If you need a Summit item longer return the item on time and place a new Summit request.
Yes, you may. See the Distance Education we pages.
