The ILL Tip of the Week is the best way to fill in the *Title*, *Author*, and* ISBN #* on the ILL Request: [image: image.png] - Please do not use CAPS. With the new formatting, it looks like you are yelling at me. - Please enter the Author with the* Last Name first, First Name last*. This is the biggest aid in finding an item. - Please make sure the Title and Author are spelled correctly. - The ISBN is not required, but helps narrow down exactly what your patron is asking for. As always, I will accept any request that comes and will do my best to figure out what your patron is asking for, regardless of how the request is filled out. 😀 I appreciate the work you all do in providing this service to your patrons!

Hello all, I neglected to add that Title, Author and ISBN (13 digit number, optional) are the ONLY fields that need to be filled in to search for an item. Of course, please make sure the correct Format of the item is selected from the drop-down menu, but any additional info., such as a publisher or OCLC number actually hinder the search process. 🙂 Thank you!
