BOOKS AND AUDIOVISUAL ITEMS

Please fill out the online Interlibrary Loan Request for a Book or Audiovisual Item form. We will attempt to find a free lender from within Massachusetts Library System. Please note that there is a $5 postage/packaging charge for items shipped from outside the Massachusetts Library System. If you wish us to search outside of Massachusetts, you must authorize this charge on the request form. Some lending libraries also charge additional fees. Turn-around time is usually 1 to 3 weeks. A valid Minuteman Library card is required. When the requested item arrives, you will be contacted with the email address (or telephone number) that is in your Minuteman Library Network account.
