Returning Items

ILL Books

As the Semester is drawing near its end and with many Students & even Faculty leaving the area until the Spring Semester, we would like to remind you that you need to return items checked out of Memorial Library and from Interlibrary Loan.

Please note:

  • All outstanding book loans can be returned using the bookdrop located just outside the front entrance of the Library.
  • Books can be returned to other SUNY campuses if they have a bookdrop available.
  • If you are not on campus for the semester (or have other concerns) please send an email to library@cortland.edu to discuss your specific situation, including fines on overdue notices; contact Interlibrary Loan at Interlibraryloan@cortland.edu
  • Items that are returned (particularly ILL items) will not come off your account until we are able to process them. You will not be fined for late items in this circumstance.

Please see the Library Resources – COVID-19 – Fall 2020 Guide for additional information. (https://cortland.libguides.com/COVID-19)

Interlibrary Loan Update

Memorial Library is still processing article requests. Unfortunately, physical items are not loanable at this time. This process may take longer than usual as staff are working remotely so please be patient.

We are monitoring our ILL email, Interlibraryloan@cortland.edu so if you need to communicate with us, please do so by email rather than calling.

See our Library Resources during COVID-19 LibGuide (https://cortland.libguides.com/COVID-19) for further information.

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) – Borrow from Other Libraries

You may have noticed that you can request Library material directly from the your search results in ONESearch in myRedDragon (mRD).

Please note that, in order to borrow from outside libraries, you still need to have an ILLiad account.

To set up up your own ILLiad account, click on “Interlibrary Loan” under Library Links and Resources on the left side of the Library Tab in myRedDragon. Sign in using your mRD ID & Password and follow the instructions given.

Once this is completed and approved, you will be able to successfully make & receive ILL requests.
