Library One Search has streamlined the request process and will display request options based on the availability of the item in the ASU Library.
The primary request types are:
- Request from an ASU library
- Use this to request an item from the ASU Library collections to be picked up at the ASU library of your choice
- Books may be requested for home delivery (two days) for addresses outside of the Phoenix-Metro area. Contact Ask a Librarian if you have questions.
- Request from an external library
- Use this to request an item through Interlibrary Loan. This option will only appear when the item is not owned or is unavailable for request from the ASU Library.
- Request an article or chapter scan
- Use this to request a scan of an article or book chapter.
- Note: Scanning requests will be reviewed for copyright compliance and may be canceled. If this happens, Ask a Librarian can help.
- Request an ebook alternative
- Sometimes it may make sense tor request an ebook alternative for a print book we already own. However, this is not always possible due to publisher restrictions and may take as long as, or longer than, home delivery of the print book.
- You can make your request through the Suggest an item for the library to purchase form.
- Please note: If you are an online student, we will contact you when the item is available.
