Interlibrary Loan Services and Guidelines: Alumni & Retirees

Understand how to borrow research materials through ILL.

Alumni & Retirees

Alumni and retirees may use ILL services at no charge when the material requested can be obtained free of charge. However, when libraries bill for services, these charges will be passed on to the patron making the request.

Alumni are limited to 5 active requests at a time.


To register for ILL privileges after graduation or retirement, you will need:

  • A valid Dickinson ID
  • An active account with the library reflecting your patron status

For information on updating your library account, contact circ@dickinson.edu.
