Changes to Interlibrary Loan (OCLC) Requests

OCLC requests now cost $10.50 but MelCat requests are still free

We want to inform you of an important update to our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) services.

 

There is now a **$10.50 fee** for each ILL request made through the OCLC (Clio) system, which includes software usage ($5.50 per request) and postage or shipping ($5.00).

​

This change is due to a significant increase in postage costs incurred by the Library and a change in software for processing OCLC requests. 

​

**Please Note:** Ordering items from other Michigan libraries through MeLCat remains free of charge.

​

We appreciate your understanding as we continue to provide valuable services to our community.
Thank you for your continued support!
