BorrowDirect+ service now available
(25-AUG-04)

The Library is pleased to announce the addition of another online direct borrowing service: E-ZBorrow! E-Z Borrow, like BorrowDirect, allows users to search the combined catalogs of member libraries, then directly place requests for materials not available at Penn.
  • E-ZBorrow members include over 40 public and private academic and research libraries in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New Jersey, including Penn State, Rutgers, Pittsburgh and Temple.
  • Like BorrowDirect requests, books requested through the system are available for pickup at Van Pelt Circulation within four days.
  • Unlike BorrowDirect books, E-Z Borrow books are checked out on your library patron record, and can be renewed for an additional 28 days beyond the original 28-day loan period.
To use E-Z Borrow, click on BorrowDirect+ where you'll find links to both these easy and fast request and delivery services, along with regular Interlibrary Loan.
