The Heart of Sustainability: Restoring Ecological Balance From the Inside Out by Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a service that allows you to check out materials that are unavailable in our library from libraries around the US. It is available to all Morningside students (including distant education graduate students), faculty, and staff. ILL can be used for both physical and digital materials.
To find a book or other physical resource outside our library, it is easiest to use our Discovery Search. Once you find a resource you want, click on the record. There will be a maroon button labeled "Request Item Through Interlibrary Loan." Click this button and fill in your contact information to make an ILL request.
You can also use the ILL Submission Form. Make sure to put as much information as possible. This makes it easier for us to find the correct item for you.
Physical resources may take 7 to 10 days or longer to receive once you put in a request. Please keep this in mind when beginning your research. You will receive an email when your item(s) are available to be picked up at the library.
Digital materials often only take a few days to receive. These resources will be emailed to you.
If you have any questions about ILL, please do not hesitate to ask a librarian.
