Requesting Articles via InterLibrary Loan

If you find an article on PubMed, Google Scholar, or anywhere that VCSU does not have access to, don't panic! Don't pay for access to the article either. Follow these steps instead.

  1. Find the DOI, PMID, or full title of the article and copy it.
  2. Go to the AML website, click the menu called "Library Services," then select the top option, "My Library Account."
  3. Log into your account using your NDUS credentials. 
  4. At the top of the page, you should see a tab that says, "Item Lookup," click that tab and paste your article information in the correct area of the form.
  5. Click submit, then when your result shows up, click "Resource Sharing Request:" under the "How to Get it" section. 
  6. Make sure the information is correct, then submit your form. The library will let you know when your item arrives!
