D. Interlibrary Loans

1. NUS academic staff and graduate students who require books, not held by the NUS Libraries, for research or teaching purposes may request the Library to borrow them from other libraries. Requests may be made on inter-library loan forms and submitted to the Circulation Department in Central Library or the Special Library concerned.
    

2. An organisation that requires interlibrary loan facilities may submit an application for corporate membership.  Please visit
   http://www.lib.nus.edu.sg/mem/corporate.html for details of the corporate membership.  Local libraries requesting the loan must produce a valid NUS Library inter-library loan (ILL) card at the loan counter.

1. Call in advance
2. Fax the ILL forms or letters and indicate ILL card number
