WILL: Borrowing from Other Libraries
Williams InterLibrary Loan (WILL) offers members of the Williams community (faculty, students, staff and their spouses) several options to borrow materials not available at Williams. Most materials may be borrowed for 30 days and some may be renewed.
For additional information on these services, contact the Sawyer Research Help Desk at 413-597-2515 or the Schow Services Desk at 413-597-4500 or send an email to our Ask A Librarian service.
Before borrowing from another library, make sure to check what is available at Williams. Did you...
- Check FRANCIS, the Williams College Library catalog?
- Ask a Librarian for help with your research?
