Library "Do-It-Yourself" (DIY)

The FAU Libraries Interlibrary Loan Department is committed to supporting the research of FAU online Distance Learners. If you have a question about a specific request, or need clarification about services, please contact our office.

• Only students exclusively taking all online classes are considered Distance Learners.
• FAU Distance Learners need a valid Owl Card which serves as your library card.
• To obtain materials not available electronically, Distance Learners should create an Interlibary Loan account.
  • Be sure to pick Distance Learner as your status.
• FAU will mail FAU-owned books to the address you specify. You are responsible for return postage.
• We can order articles not owned by FAU. Articles are delivered to your Interlibrary Loan account.
• For books not owned by FAU, please use your local library's interlibrary loan department.

For more information on the Interlibrary Loan Department guidelines for document delivery see Distance Learners.
