Library Services

Would you like to borrow a book or article that is not owned by the Learning Resource Center? Use the ILL Service to see if we can help you borrow it from another library.  ILL is a service where a user at one library can borrow an item from a different library. You must be a BCTC student, staff, or faculty to use the BCTC ILL service, and the item requested must be something we do not own already or have available online through one of our library databases. Many public libraries also offer ILL services.

Not sure what database to use? See the LRC Research Guide for direction and helpful hints or use the Ask a Librarian form to answer this and other quick reference questions.

Databases
