• request a copy of an article from a journal to which the OSU Libraries do not have a subscription or the subscription lacks the issue that you need.
• request to borrow a book from another institution because it is not available at OSU.
• request that a book or journal located at the Annex be delivered to an on-campus library for you to use.
• request that a book located at one OSU Stillwater Library location be delivered to a different location for you to use. (e.g. request that a book from Main Library be brought to the Veterinary Medicine Library for you)
