If you live outside the Summit library area, you may use the interlibrary loan service at your local library to request books in Chemeketa’s library (or other libraries). Articles in journals and magazines may also be requested on interlibrary loan.
Chemeketa does not charge for interlibrary loans, but some libraries do. Ask your local librarian about any fees.
Tip: Allow extra time for requesting materials from another library. The time needed for interlibrary loan depends on many factors, and can vary from a day to several weeks. Allow at least a week.
Remember, a large proportion of Chemeketa's Collection is electronic, and accessible from your home or another location. You can filter by Full Text Online in the Chemeketa Primo library search results, or use one of our databases to find over a hundred thousand e-books, millions of articles, or a range of streaming videos.
Use your My Chemeketa User Name and password if asked for a login.
Interlibrary loan of articles can be requested directly through the Primo Library Search; articles will be delivered electronically. For physical items, please see Interlibrary Loan, below.
You can ask the librarians for help finding alternative online resources.
