Find and Request Books

Rod Library provides extra document delivery services to distance learners. Library staff can locate, check out, and send in-house books to distance learners. Rod Library does not interlibrary loan books for distance education students since the books have to be returned to the lending library. We recommend that you use your local public library to interlibrary loan these books.
