Use Interlibrary Loan (ILL) to obtain books or journal articles not owned by the University Libraries. This service is available at no cost to faculty members, currently enrolled students, and University staff. I would like to donate Korean books. How do I do it? Gifts of books, tapes, CD's, videos, LP's and miscellaneous materials (e.g. pamphlets, manuscripts, local history, souvenirs and memorabilia) are welcomed by the library as a means of supplementing our book and media collections, filling in gaps in our holdings, and adding copies to heavily used titles.
