Magill Library, Staff Work Area, Second Tier
610/896-1171, rhaley@haverford.edu
When its local collections are insufficient, the Library
will do its best to acquire anything needed by eligible campus borrowers
without charge to them. Interlibrary services may involve Tri-College
Borrowing, E-ZBorrow Direct Borrowing, or National
Interlibrary Loan Service.
Tri-College Borrowing
Your Haverford ID card gives you borrowing privileges
at Bryn Mawr and Swarthmore libraries for those materials that the libraries
will circulate.
If you do not want to go to other campuses to get
items, click on the "Request" button on the screen displaying the item
you want, enter your name and barcode number from the back of your college
ID, and follow the Tripod instructions. You may also ask staff to place
the request for you.
For more information see our Tri-College
Borrowing FAQ page.
E-ZBorrow Direct Borrowing
If the Tri-College Libraries do not own the book you
need, you can simultaneously search a number of academic library catalogs
in Pennsylvania through E-ZBorrow
and then request many of the items directly from the owning libraries.
The barcode on the back of your ID card is your "Patron ID" to access
E-ZBorrow.
For books not available in E-ZBorrow, use the National
Interlibrary Loan Service. Please note that journal articles are not available
through E-ZBorrow.
NOTE: The E-ZBorrow
catalog requires the use of javascript. Some browsers and operating systems,
including IE 6.0 and Windows XP, will need to have the javascript plugin
downloaded and installed. The plug-in can be downloaded for free from
Java
Support at Sun Microsystems. Also, please ensure that your browser
has javascript enabled.
National Interlibrary Loan Services
If neither the Tri-College Libraries nor E-ZBorrow can
provide the materials you need, then you may complete an ILL
book request form or an ILL
journal request form.
For more information see our National
Interlibrary Loan Services FAQ page.

Librarian, and the Science
Librarian can assist you in identifying and locating materials of
interest and advise you about the best way to obtain given items. Call
these librarians if you have a question about locations for (or the existence
of) a specific item, if you need help determining whether an item is available,
or if you need a bibliographic citation in order to request an item.
In addition to Reference and ILL staff members, circulation
staff assist with the borrowing of materials from Bryn Mawr and Swarthmore.
Call the Circulation staff if you have a question about how to request
an item from Bryn Mawr or Swarthmore, the status of a requested item,
