Lending Policies for Outside Libraries

UW-Milwaukee Interlibrary Loan Lending
The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Interlibrary Loan office provides lending and copying services to outside libraries and institutions.

If you’re an academic, public, or special library, we accept either OCLC requests to the symbol ‘GZN’ or webform requests (if OCLC is not an option for your institution). If your institution needs a webform login, please submit your library’s information in the Lending ILLiad Account Request Form or contact Endora Smith at libill@uwm.edu; and she will register your institution to use the webform to make interlibrary loan requests.
