The Swarthmore Libraries can help you get books, even when we don't own a copy.
Here's how to get a book:
- Search Tripod for the book title.
- No copies available in Tripod? Login to EZBorrow, search for your book, and request a copy. (takes ~1 week to arrive, usually)
- No luck with EZBorrow? Fill out the Interlibrary Loan Request form. (~1-2 weeks to arrive, usually)
What about articles? You can get PDFs of articles and book chapters, too.
- First, check Tripod for the article or book.
- If we don't have access, place an Article Delivery Request or a Book Chapter Request. Most requests are filled by email. (2 days or less, usually)
