Take advantage of our Interlibrary 服务 using either 基社盟+ or 馆际互借 (ILL) to request a copy of an article or book for free from another library. We recommend using 基社盟+ first as you will typically get your material quicker than with 馆际互借. If using 馆际互借, you will need to register the first time you use it.
