Borrowing Procedures

Requesting Materials

Items that are checked out may have holds/reserves placed on them. Items may be placed on request at any reference desk of any YDL facility, online or over the phone.  When requesting  items with an "on shelf" status, for immediate fulfillment,  we suggest you place your request by phone.  Requests are taken on a first-come first-served basis.
Interlibrary loan service is available to obtain items which the library does not own. These requests may take anywhere from 1-6 weeks to be received; YDL borrows materials from libraries all across the country. You may request an Interlibrary Loan at any YDL public service desk or by telephone.
