borrowing service: |
E-ZBorrow PALCI (for the Pennsylvania Academic Library Consortium, Inc.) provides access to the catalogs of over 30 academic libraries in Pennsylvania, including the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Lehigh University, and Pennsylvania State University, to name only a few.
You can simultaneously search several academic library catalogs in Pennsylvania through E-ZBorrow. You can then request many of the items found there directly from the owning libraries and these items will be sent to Marywood Library for you. Items borrowed from other libraries can be picked up and returned at our library. Items are generally delivered within 4-7 days. You will be notified via email when the book is available for pickup. Enter EZBorrow
The PALCI only handles requests for books. If you need journal articles, please request it through the Interlibrary Loan.
