Service Update

Due to COVID-19, the Interlibrary Loan Services print requests and Link+ service will have longer timelines. Due to member library closures, quarantine times and mailing delays, there may be a 7 to 14 day delay in receiving print material from other Libraries and making them available to the requestor. Electronic articles requests might have an additional 3-5 day delay due to requests being filled from member libraries with reduced staff in their buildings. Pacific Library staff will notify you when your items have arrived and are available for pick up. ILL and Link+ items cannot be mailed at this time. Thank you for your patience. For questions, contact Monica Schutzman at mschutzman@pacific.edu or ill@pacific.edu.
