Interlibrary Loans service alerts

You can request Interlibrary Loans until 9 am on Monday 15^th December 2025. The Interlibrary Loan service will pause over the Christmas period and will resume from Monday 5th January 2026.

If you have questions about current requests or need further help, please contact the Interlibrary Loans team at webill@ed.ac.uk before Tuesday 23^rd December.

 Thank you for your understanding.

Due to a major technology outage following a cyber-attack, the British Library is not currently available for supplying Interlibrary Loans, which may cause some delays to requests but should not disrupt the Interlibrary Loans service overall.

Details of the British Library's services and resources, along with details of the attack, can be found on the Knowledge Matters blog at the following address: https://blogs.bl.uk/living-knowledge/index.html
