Inter-Library Loan

If we don't have what you are looking for in our collection, we can request an Inter-Library Loan (ILL) for you from other NH libraries.

When you make a request our ILL Librarian, we will try to locate the book and have it delivered to us. Once you are notified, you will pick up your items here at the library.

There are several ways to request an Inter-Library Loan:

• You can fill out an Inter-Library Loan request slip at the library.
• You can call us at 603-654-2581.
• You can send an email to ill@wiltonlibrarynh.org
• You can request a loan through the online catalog.

 

Here's how you request a loan through the online catalog:

• Go to the Wilton Public And Gregg Free Library catalog (on the menu bar at the top of this page)  and log in to your account.
• Click on the phrase My Account in the upper right corner. A new section will pop up.
• Click on Reserves/Requests.  You'll see the phrase.  "Is the library missing something? You can request that we purchase it or borrow it from another library (ILL)". 
• Click on the word request in that phrase.  That will give you a new section entitled Request An Item. 
• In that section, type in the title and the author, select an item type, and add any additional information in the space allowed. 
• Be sure to click on Send Request at the bottom of the page, and we will do the rest! 

If you would like to search the NHU-PAC (the NH Union Catalog that lists the holdings of most NH libraries) yourself, follow these steps:

• Go to the state catalog website: https://nhais.agshareit.com/home?cid=nhais&lid=nhais
• Search by title, author, or keyword.
• Scroll the results to find the one you want.
• Request the book using any of the Inter-library Loan processes above.

Please allow at least 1 week before inquiring about your request once placed. The loan process is not under our control once the request has been made. We will call you when the item is ready for checkout, or sooner if we cannot borrow the item you have requested.

Please place inter-library loan requests only with libraries where you have a card. For example, do not contact the Milford library with a book request unless you have a Milford Library card.  Doing so goes against policies and procedures put into place by the State of New Hampshire. We will work in conjunction with other town libraries to request/receive your item as soon as possible.

We are happy to work with you to find the materials you need!
