Fees apply per item to all supplied interlibrary loans and must be paid at time of collection.

• Supply from another public library $13.50
• Supply from other institutions $34.00

Additional costs apply to rush, express and international requests. Fees for copies from a resource are calculated on an individual basis. The Interlibrary Loans Officer will advise you of any additional costs before proceeding with your request.

The Interlibrary Loans Officer will always endeavour to supply the item for the lowest possible fee.

No fee is charged if we are not able to source the item or if the request is cancelled before it has been shipped.

The interlibrary loan fee will apply if the request is cancelled after the item has been shipped.

Standard overdue fees apply for interlibrary loans returned after the due date.

The length of time an interlibrary loan takes to arrive varies for each request and may take more than two weeks. Urgent requests can be allocated as 'rush' or 'express', however, additional costs apply for these levels of service. The Interlibrary Loans Officer will advise you of any applicable costs before proceeding with your request.

When the item arrives it will be processed then sent to your nominated branch. Library staff will contact you when it is ready for collection.

The loan period is determined by the supplying library and is generally from two to five weeks

Renewals may be available and are at the discretion of the supplying library. Email the Interlibrary Loans Officer or call 02 4974 5351 before the due date if a renewal is required as overdue fees apply for late items.
