Interlibrary Loan Request
Looking for a book the Library doesn't own? Fill out an Interlibrary Loan request and the Library will attempt to borrow the book from another library system.
If the Osceola Library doesn't own the title you're interested in, it may be possible to request the title from another library in the United States using Interlibrary Loan (ILL).
Please stop by any Osceola Library location to request an ILL or place your ILL request online by using the online application. Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery. An Osceola Library card in good standing is required to use this service.
