Library Express

Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery are now covered under the new online Library Express service initiated this past July. Logon to Library Express by following the "Article and Book Delivery" link from the UW Library's web site sidebar (http://www.library.wisc.edu/) or enter through the Library Services section of MyUW. At the Library Express site you will see options for requesting materials from local libraries or other institutions.

To request a book, connect to WorldCat through the link provided, locate the book information, and select "Borrow through Library Express." Enter your ID number and last name in the popup window and click the submit button.

To request a journal article, choose the "Request an article or other copy" link. Use the form to enter the bibliographic information and click the submit button.

To request a score or recording, use WorldCat to verify publication details; then use the "Request a book or other loan" link in Library Express to open a form where the required information can be supplied by copying and pasting from WorldCat.

You can monitor the status of any request from the Library Express main menu by selecting "View outstanding requests." When materials become available for your use, you will receive email notification.

Library Express also offers a direct link to "UW System Borrowing," the place to search library catalogs at other UW libraries. The interface is similar to MadCat and permits you to borrow materials by choosing the "Place Requests" button at the top of the screen.

Please contact Music Library staff if you would like assistance in placing any Library Express request.
