Placing an interlibrary loan request via the university library’s catalogue

If your search in the university library’s catalogue does not yield any results, click on the tab “B3Kat Union Catalogue: ILL”.
After selecting a title, continue by clicking on the tab “Get document” and then on the „SFX” button.
Under „Order via local catalogue, FAUdok or Interlibrary Loan” you can select your pick-up location. Fill in the request form with the required information. You may also use this form to set the latest date of delivery or personalise your request, for example by choosing a specific edition.
In case the item of interest is not available in the Union Catalogue, it is still possible to request material via interlibrary loan. You can submit a request by following the link “Interlibrary loan request” under „Further help“. Please fill in the request form with as much information as you have on the item.
