Inter-Library Loans

Interlibrary-Library Loans (ILL) is a system which allows you to obtain material from other libraries not held here at Coleg Llandrillo Cymru. Most items are supplied through the LINC Y Gogledd scheme - which is free of charge. Other items (including articles from journals, books, conference reports or theses) can be obtained from the British Library. There is a fee of £2 for this service.

To request an item ask for a request form available at the library counter. Complete as many details as possible from your source of reference. Books - Author, title, Date, publisher. Journal articles - Title of journal, date, volume, page number and author and title of the article.

Inter-library loan request details for journal articles can be obtained, and a printable request form downloaded, from the British Library's ZETOC web site. Bring the completed form to the library with your £2 fee and the article will be dispatched to your home address by the British Library in two working days.

Library staff will be pleased to help with any matter relating to the service, email library@llandrillo.ac.uk.
