If you find a journal article or book that is not available through the ISU Library, you can request it!
Digital items and scans are generally delivered within 24 hours.
Physical items are generally delivered within 3 to 10 business days. Delivery times vary based on the nature and availability of the item.
This same process works if you need a book chapter copied and sent to you or a physical book from our collections.
Physical Books can be mailed to you if you live more than 25 miles outside of Ames.
