Looking for Something the Library Doesn't Own?
If you have been looking for a book or article that the Palm Beach County Library System does not own, you can make an Interlibrary Loan request to find the item. Please Check Our Catalog First before placing an Interlibrary Loan Request.
Please fill out the form below and provide as much information about the item as you can to speed up the processing of your request. Click here for more information on Interlibrary Loan.
Click the "Submit This Request" button below when you are done.
Please enter as much information as you can into the form below. If there is no information for that field (i.e. a book, but no article) then leave that field blank. Insufficient information will delay your Interlibrary Loan Request as we will need to follow-up with you directly.

Your Card Number, E-mail address, and Pickup Location are REQUIRED.
Your card number should be in the format "D012345678" starting with a D and followed by 9 numbers. The card number should not include any spaces.

Maximum Willing to Pay
The Palm Beach County Library provides free Interlibrary Loan Service. Through our membership in several resource-sharing networks with reciprocal agreements we can obtain most materials free of charge. However, some lending libraries may charge a fee to borrow or photocopy materials. Materials for which there may be a charge will not be supplied unless the willingness to pay the lending fee is indicated. The lending charges may be $10 to $20 per loan.

The copyright law of the United States (Title 17, U.S. Code) governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Under certain conditions specified by the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction.

This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order, if in its judgment, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law.
