How can I request delivery of Interlibrary Loans to my campus office?
Faculty may request that items lent by other institutions be delivered directly to their campus office.
To participate, faculty should put a note in their next ILLiad loan request that states, “campus delivery” and include their full campus departmental address, or send an email to illinfo@uark.edu.
When a loaned item arrives at Mullins Library from the lending institution, libraries staff will notify the faculty member when the item is being delivered to their provided campus department address.
Once a faculty member opts in for campus delivery, all subsequently requested materials on loan from other institutions will be delivered to their provided campus address until Resource Sharing staff are notified otherwise.
Deliveries will only go to the departmental office — not labs, faculty offices or any other locations. Delivery of materials will be delayed during times of inclement weather.
Arrangements can be made for the delivery of these materials to faculty located outside of the main campus, including those at the Global Campus and the Studio and Design Center.
Faculty are responsible for returning materials to the library when they are due, either to the Help Desk or to an outside Book Drop.

I don't see the full-text of my journal article in the database. How can I get the article?
Not all articles can be found full-text in all of our databases. If you don't see the full-text, look for the Find It! button.
The FindIt! widget will provide links to full-text when available in other databases, or list the holdings for print or hard-copies in our libraries.
If the Libraries do not have access to the full text of the article in print or online, you can request the article via Interlibrary Loan from the Find It! page.

How can I get an article from a journal that the Libraries don't own?
You can use the Journal Search to see if we have the journal for the volumes / years you need.
You may also want to try the Article Finder.
If neither of those are successful, please use interlibrary loan through the Resource Sharing Department to request a scan of the article from another library.
