Interlibrary Loan Request

Interlibrary Loan is a service provided by the Lake-Sumter Community College (LSCC) Library to assist faculty, staff and students with their research needs. The Interlibrary Loan Department will locate and acquire, whenever possible, requested materials that are not owned by the LSCC Library.

The Interlibrary Loan Department is also responsible for the lending of materials owned by the LSCC Library to other institutions when the requests fall within the guidelines stated here.

The conditions of these services are based on the latest editions of the American Library Association National Interlibrary Loan Code; the Florida Interlibrary Loan Code; the Central Florida Library Cooperative Interlibrary Loan Code; and the Copyright Law, Title 17, U.S. Code.

Interlibrary loan services are available to faculty, staff and LSCC students currently enrolled in credit classes. Requests must be related to LSCC course work. All requesters must provide a valid ID card number. If you do not have a validated ID card, contact the library at 365-3563. Submit one request for each item.

  • Check the LINCC Catalog to be sure LSCC does not own the item.
  • We attempt to borrow from libraries which DO NOT CHARGE a fee. You will be notified if a fee is required. If charges are accepted, you will be responsible for payment upon arrival of the material.
  • Students may request 5 items per research project.
  • Average time to fill requests is 6-7 days. Some requests may take up to 3 weeks.
  • Do not request reference books or audiovisual materials.
  • You will be notified by telephone or e-mail when the item arrives. Please pick up the item promptly.
  • For further information, call 365-3527 or 365-3563.
