Inter-Library Loan Request

Can’t find a book in JML’s Collection? We are happy to make an interlibrary loan (ILL) request for you. We work with other Maine State Libraries to provide this service to you free of charge. 

Please limit your requests to no more than three (3) books a week during September 2024, as we want to avoid overwhelming the new interlibrary loan courier service.

When making requests please keep in mind that the checkout time frame for most ILL books is limited, based on the lending library’s needs. Some items are not renewable. Prompt pick-up and return of an ILL item is essential in order to allow adequate time for patron reading and for return transport to the lending library. Only the fields with asterisks are required but other information, such as publication date, publisher, and edition, are helpful to submit the application.
