New Service: E-ZBorrow

We are pleased to announce that Mount Aloysius College has joined the Pennsylvania Academic Library Consortium, Inc. (PALCI), an organization of over 60 academic libraries in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and West Virginia. Member libraries include major research institutions (Penn State U, U of Pitt, U. of Penn, U. of West Virginia U, Rutgers U) and a variety of smaller liberal arts institutions that include Duquesne U, Carnegie Mellon U, Mercyhurst C, Dickinson C, and Messiah College. A complete list of member institutions can be viewed at the PALCI website.

Membership in PALCI provides access to E-ZBorrow, a statewide borrowing program for requesting books from other libraries. This program was demonstrated during Faculty Development Day on January 12. For more information click here

The link for E-ZBorrow can be found on the upper right corner of the main Library web page or you can acces by following the link below:



E-ZBorrow does not replace traditional Interlibrary Loan but it complements it so we ask you to fill your book requests through E-ZBorrow before using Interlibrary Loan. (Please note: E-ZBorrow is for books only. Requests for periodical articles must still be submitted through Interlibrary Loan.)

We are excited to be able to offer you this additional level of service. Please contact the Reference Librarians, Shamim Rajpar or Rob Stere, if you would like a demonstration or if you have any questions or emil askalibrarian@mtaloy.edu .
