What is Resource Sharing?
Resource Sharing allows the borrowing and lending of books and articles within the SUNY network. If an item is unavailable through SUNY, an Interlibrary loan request is generated.
What is Interlibrary loan?
Interlibrary loan allows for participating libraries to lend and borrow materials. If a book or article is not owned by our library, it may be available from another library through Interlibrary loan. We cannot guarantee that the item you request will be available from another library.
