For more information about features of ILLiad, see the https://ksu.illiad.oclc.org/illiad/FAQ.htmlFAQ. To login or register go to the ILLiad login page.

RETRIEVAL & COPY SERVICE--for materials in K-State Libraries

Interlibrary Services provides a courtesy Document Delivery Service for:
  • Faculty

Requests should be submitted via ILLiad. We will scan articles from books and journals in K-State Libraries up to 50 pages in length, post them to the Web, and send an e-mail when they are available to download via your ILLiad account.

We will provide the same service for students for a fee of $5.00/article.

We will also retrieve books to be held for check out at Circulation for all patrons for $1.00/book.

If you are interested in one of our fee-based services, contact ILS for further information regarding request submission and payment options.
