A fast, easy and inexpensive way to get copies of items from the National Library of Australia's collection

The National Library is implementing a new system which will be fully interoperable with the new national resource sharing service from 1 July.

While we transition to the new system, from now through to 1 July, the National Library participation in Inter Library Loans will be suspended.

We look forward to resuming this service with our fully integrated system.
