INTER-LIBRARY LOANS

In 2024, the CHELiN van service between CHELiN institutions runs once a week on a Wednesday.

Inter-library loans is a service available to registered students and staff of an institution to request books and articles, not available at their home institution’s libraries. Documents are requested from South African libraries as well as international libraries. 

CHELiN members should direct any requests for inter-library loans to their library at their home institution. This applies to requests for material held by CHELiN member libraries and libraries outside CHELiN (national and international).
