How do Georgetown Law members get a book from Georgetown University main campus? How do I get a book from a local general academic library?
Answer
Georgetown University Law Center members 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 "Available" copy that you wish to have routed to the 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 Send Request once done. Your request will be randomly issued to the 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 law libraries belonging to local academic schools do not lend through this service. If there is a book that is exclusively found in a local law academic library, Georgetown Law members 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.
