Click on the link
"Search the catalog at your library"
(highlighted in yellow below). This will take
you into the ILLINET Online catalog where you
may be able to request this item using your Parkland ID
number.
Example from
WorldCat:

This
should provide faster delivery of your
requested items. Of course, not
everything is in ILLINET Online, so plan
to use the Interlibrary Loan button or
link for those items.
Another
tip: when you see this . . .
. . . it means
the item is at the University of
Illinois Library or Champaign Public Library
or Urbana Free Library. (Click to see
which one). Remember that your Parkland
ID allows you to check out materials at
the U of I. If you're in a hurry and do
not want to wait for the item to be
delivered to Parkland Library, you can
go over and check out the item directly.
Or if you have a public library card and
need the item fast, you can make a quick
trip to the one that owns the item.
Libraries
have a long history of making their
materials available to other libraries
and their patrons. With computer
technology it is easier than ever to
track down the material that you need.
