Requesting an interlibrary loan
- Login to My Library Account.
- Use the search bar to look for items in the catalogue.
- If the item is not available in our collection, there will be a “Get it from another library” button in the “How to get it” section of the record.
- Complete the request form and select submit. The system will ensure your request is directed to the library that can fill it the quickest.
- If you're not seeing what you are looking for, expand your search results by selecting “Add results beyond OCAD U’s Collection” using the toggle in the left navigation.

How do I search other libraries, beyond Omni?
If you’re not seeing what you are looking for in Omni, expand your search results by selecting “Add results beyond OCAD U’s Collection” using the toggle in the left navigation of the catalogue search.
Still not finding what you are looking for? Try searching Worldcat, which aggregates records from libraries around the world, or Google Scholar, which does the same for journal articles.
Then use the blank Omni request form located in the top navigation bar to enter your citation information and the library team will process your request. To automatically fill the blank request form for journal articles, enter the DOI in the Omni request form and then click “auto-fill”.
