LibraryFind Search
Library Find will get you started finding articles and books.
Interlibrary Loans (ILL)
You can get a copy of any journal article not available at OSU Libraries by using Interlibrary Loan (ILL). This service is free to you.
You must have an ONID account to register for ILL. From the OSU Libraries catalog, look for the link to Interlibrary Loan and select "Log on for ILL Service." Consider registering now, before you actually need to request an article.
We are able to obtain the majority of requested articles within 5-7 days depending on the number of libraries owning the journal. Some requests take more time some take less. On the rare occasion that the Library is unable to identify a lending library, we will try to get the information you will need to contact the author directly.
Articles usually come as PDF files that are sent you a secure website for your use. You can also use ILL to request books (or chapters of books) if you are unable to locate then in the Summit catalog.

Where is what in the Valley Library?
- If you are a new Valley Library user, consider taking the Virtual Tour of the Valley Library.
- You will need to be familiar with where things are on the first and second floors -- to do this, use the floor maps (http://osulibrary.oregonstate.edu/locations/valley.html).
- A word to the wise, the first floor, which houses most fisheries and wildlife material, seems complicated at first.
- On this floor we house older journals in "compact shelving" on the North side.
- Journals from 1990 to 2003 are shelved with the books on the South side.
- New issues of journals are left unbound in a display area in the Southeast corner
- It is *always* okay to ask questions - here are some options:
- Look for the in-library phone on each floor -- use it to call the Reference Desk.
- Come to the Reference Desk on the 2nd floor before you get frustrated.
- Use our reference chat service linked on the OSU Libraries home page (http://osulibrary.oregonstate.edu).
