If you know that the McNairy Library does not have the book you want, the next step is to check E-ZBorrow. This system allows you to search nearby libraries for books that will be delivered to McNairy Library in about 3-5 business days. You will be able to keep the items for 12 weeks, but they can NOT be renewed.

Searching E-ZBorrow.

  1. From this page: https://www.library.millersville.edu/request-it-and-e-zborrow, (found under the Tools and Services menu on the library's homepage) click on Request-It (E-ZBorrow)
  2. Search for your book title
  3. If you have a particular edition you need, make sure you look for the edition number/year published
  4. Look for a version that has "multiple locations" listed by the location heading
  5. Click on the Request button
    1. If it asks you to select your home institution: Select Millersville University. This will log you in.
    2. Now repeat steps 4 & 5, and hit the Request button for your book again
  6. A Confirm Request box should pop-up. Click on Confirm Request
  7. You will receive an email when the book is ready to be picked up at Millersville

If the book is unavailable in E-ZBorrow, see the link below for using Request It (with a green squirrel).
