In order to check out materials, Motlow students, faculty, and staff, including community borrowers, must have a Motlow
ID card that may be obtained at any Motlow library branch.
Students from other colleges and universities must have
a TALC Card from their
home school library to be able to check out materials from the Motlow Libraries.
Motlow students, faculty, and staff may obtain
a TALC Card from their local branch of Motlow Library. This card may be used at all Tennessee Board of Regents and
University of Tennessee Libraries.
Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary Loan requests may be made by faculty, students, staff, and
community borrowers. Request forms are available from reference staff, or the patron may fill
out an Online Request Form.
Requests for materials are handled at no cost to the patron. However, any assessment of fines,
damage, or loss will be the responsibility of the borrower. There are NO RENEWALS on ILL
materials. The requestor may be charged $5.00 for "not picking up" an interlibrary loan. This
is to recover the costs of ILL when the borrower chooses other options.
The following conditions govern loan requests from students:
- Students and community borrowers are limited to requesting three (3) items at one time.
Once the original three books requested have been returned, three additional books may be
requested. Additional periodical articles may be requested once the original requested articles
are supplied to the student.
- An INTERLIBRARY LOAN REQUEST form must be completed for each request. If filling out the
request at a campus location, the borrower may ask for the assistance of a Librarian. It is
always helpful to supply a printout or photocopy or web link of the borrower's requested source.
Failure to fill out the paper or web-based form
accurately and completely may result in interlibrary loan receipt delays and requests for
further information from the borrower.
The Library obtains materials from other libraries using OCLC's World Cat.
