Interlibrary loan

Interlibrary loan obtains learning and research materials not available in the Information Resource Center. Books are borrowed from other libraries, while journal articles are usually sent as black and white print copies. Please read the Interlibrary Loan Policy for full information. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Materials not related to your studies or research (e.g. novels, DVDs) can be requested via ILL through an agreement with the Public Library Bremen.

Submitting an ILL request

Option 1: Self-order item via the union catalog (GVK)
