Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a free borrowing service for NU students, faculty, and staff that allows you to request articles, books, and other materials when not available in full-text in the Library. We've just gone live with two new updates that we are excited to announce.

First, anyone with an nu.edu email address (including class-based students) can now create an interlibrary loan account to manage requests. This was previously only available to those with an ncu.edu email address. Second, when using NavigatorSearch, you will now see an ILL request link under results. Clicking this link will take you to your ILL account and start auto-populating a request form for you, helping to make the whole request process much faster and more streamlined.

We hope you enjoy these changes! Learn more about Interlibrary Loan here.

Frameworks are a core component of doctoral dissertations, but we've found that some students find it challenging to understand what they are, how they work, and how to locate them. To address this, the library has developed a new video series on locating theoretical and conceptual frameworks. Learn more and check out the videos here.
