Interlibrary Loan

 An Interlibrary is a transaction in which one library can request materials from another library.  The purpose of Interlibrary Loan is to meet the needs of patrons who request material that is not owned by their own library.  Usually materials are requested from libraries within our library system.  The Schiller Park Library will provide Interlibrary Loan for current Schiller Park Public Library cardholders, limiting requests to seven per patron per week.  The patron is responsible for any materials damaged or lost.  Click here for Inter-Library loan policy.
