How can I request a book from I-Share?

Answer

1. On the Library Website search for the title, be as specific as you can. Use quotation marks if you know the exact title. 

 

2. This will open up Ex Libris Discovery. Before you do anything else, Sign in using your net ID and password.

 

3. Select All I-Share Libraries and hit search. 

 

4. An optional step is to filter appropriately on the left hand side of the screen before looking at the available versions. Do you need a book? DVD? etc. In this example, I want a book, so I would filter appropriately. 

 

5. Once you've found the item, select See All Versions

 

6. This page will show you all the versions available, choose the one you would like to request. In this case, I want the 2004 version. Now select Check for available services

 

7. Select Request from I-Share.

 

 

8. Fill out the following form and hit Request. Make sure the "Preferred Pickup Institution" is UIS, or somewhere of your choosing. You will receive an email when the book is ready to be picked up.
