The Library can retrieve books from any University of Minnesota Library for Home Delivery or pickup at the Circulation Desk (on the library's first floor). 

You can search the University of Minnesota All Campus Catalog to check the holdings from across University of Minnesota campuses and then select the "Find or Request" tab and then "Sign in to Request" and click on Get It to order an available copy. If you've requested an item for pickup in the Library, you'll be notified when it is available for pickup. Manage renewals through My Library Account on the Library website.

Find additional information on our Get It information page and about Home Delivery on Services for Remote Users.

If you want an article, book, or other item that isn't available at the Kathryn A. Martin Library, you can request it through interlibrary loan in the catalog. Library staff will try to obtain the item through other University of Minnesota libraries and from libraries outside the UMN system. The books will be mailed here for you to check out.

Another way to find titles is by searching the catalog-of-catalogs called WorldCat. When you search WorldCat, the results will be in the order of how many libraries in the system own a copy.
