Resources for Online Teaching & Learning

interlibrary & intercampus loan (ILLIAD)

Our ILLiad services encompass Interlibrary Loan and Intercampus Loan and Faculty Document Delivery.

  • Interlibrary Loan will locate and deliver print and online materials to you from libraries outside of FIU - i.e. items we don't own - just open up a free account to get started!
  • Intercampus Loan will transfer/deliver materials between FIU Libraries.  

Order a book and you will be notified through email that your book has arrived.  Books generally arrive within 7-10 days.

TIP: When searching WorldCat, click on the book title and use the "Send Request to ILLiad" link to order the book.  Sign-in to ILLiad and the database will fill in the form for you!

Document Delivery is a service whereby Interlibrary Loan staff "delivers" copies or scans of resources that we own to faculty desktops via our ILLiad system. Print articles in the Green Library or Hubert Library will be scanned and delivered electronically to your desktop via your ILLiad account.
