UBorrow Discontinued

Due to budgetary constraints, the State System of Higher Education libraries are discontinuing UBorrow, the Interlibrary Loan system that allowed you to automatically request books from other state system libraries. In the future, please continue to request books through PALCI and books and articles through ILLIAD. For additional information about Interlibrary Loan, please visit this page: http://guides.library.bloomu.edu/content.php?pid=42181&sid=621634.
