How do Georgetown University Law Center students, faculty and staff get a book from the Georgetown University Hilltop Campus Libraries? How do I get a book from other local general academic libraries?
Answer
As a Georgetown University Law Center students, faculty or staff, you may submit a request by first finding the book via a Georgetown U. + Local Academic Libraries search through the Law Library catalog. Once you find a local academic library that has an "Item on Shelf" or "Item in Place" copy that you wish to have routed to the Capitol Campus, log into the library catalog with your Georgetown NetID and Password, and click on "Request From a Local Academic Library" under How to Get It. Complete the form and click on Send Request. Your request will be randomly issued to a local library that has a readily available copy.
For policy questions about the local academic loan service, please contact the Law Library Circulation Desk at 202-662-9131 or lawcirc@georgetown.edu
Note that the local academic law libraries do not lend through this service. If there is a book that is exclusively found in a local academic law library, Georgetown Law students, faculty and staff may request to borrow it through the Law Library Interlibrary Loan service (i.e., under How to Get It, choose "Request book, chapter, or article through ILL"). Georgetown Law ILL policies may be found on the Law Library website.
