Inter-Library Loan

If an item is not in the library catalog, we may be able to get it for you from another library in Vermont through an Inter-library loan 

What can I request?

• Books
• Audio books
• DVDs
• Music CDs
• Individual journal articles

What can I not request??

• Items already owned by the library

• Textbooks
• Oversized Books

Notifications:

We will notify you if the item is not availiable within the Vermont Library system.  If an item is avaiable, we will contact you when the library has received it.  The standard amount of time that a request takes is 7-10 days to arrive to our library.

Inter-library Loan (ILL) Limits:

Items are usually loaned out for 2 weeks and renewals can be requested but that is at the lending library's discretion.

If you have a current Stowe Free Library card in good standing, this PDF form can be filled out, saved and emailed directly to the interlibrary loan librarian, Jessica Psaros  If you would prefer, you can stop by the library to fill out a paper form.  

Questions, please call 253-6145 or email [email protected] and Jessica will  be happy to help you with your request.

This is a free service and made possible by the Institute of Museum and Library Science.  

For more information, please see the Stowe Free Library Inter-Library Loan Policy. 

The Interlibrary loan program is supported in part by the Institute of Museum & Library Services, a federal agency, through the Library Servcies & Technology Act as administered by the Vermont Department of Libraries.
