Change In Interlibrary Loan Statistics
The Interlibrary Loan Department will be changing the method we use to track interlibrary loan statistics. Beginning on July 1, 2021, we will discontinue tracking interlibrary loan stats by individual library. Therefore, libraries will need to keep track of their own interlibrary loan statistics for annual reporting purposes.

New PAC Tutorial
A new tutorial was recently created and uploaded to the North Dakota State Library’s YouTube channel. Requesting Materials That Are Not Found in the PAC (Interlibrary Loan) gives an overview on how to submit an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) request to the North Dakota State Library.
Since there is no longer a blank form for submitting requests, this tutorial outlines several ways to find materials not located in the Polaris PAC and how you can request them via e-mail, FirstSearch, or the Ask Us feature.
As always, you can call us with your interlibrary loan requests at 1-800-472-2104 or 701-328-4622, Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM CST.
