Request an Item

InterLibrary Loan (ILL)

InterLibrary Loan (ILL) requests are made via EagleSearch.  Users must sign in to see request options.  Look for "Check for Free ILL Options" to see availability options.  You can manage your checkouts, ILL requests, and more by signing in to EagleSearch and clicking on your name (My Library Account). See the ILL tutorial for more detailed information.

Purchase Request Forms (for physical items)

If the library doesn't have the physical item you want, we may be able to purchase a copy for our collection! We consider requests from current Tennessee Tech faculty, students, and staff. We do not purchase course textbooks.

Kanopy Streaming Video

Kanopy requests are limited to faculty, with a maximum of three videos per person per year, until funding runs out. Prior to submitting a request, check to see if the video is available in Academic Video Online (AVON). Current Kanopy licensed videos and their expiration dates are available in EagleSearch. When submitting a request for a new video license, please indicate whether you need a one-year or three-year license.
