Almost any type of library will qualify: academic, public, or orchestra. The library does loan materials to foreign libraries in all parts of the world. Unfortunately, we do not send materials to private libraries. The interlibrary loan process is not com plicated. Simply bring the information you received from searching the online catalog to REQUESTING MATERIALS THROUGH INTERLIBRARY LOAN

your local library and ask them to send the request to the following contact and address:

Interlibrary Loan Attn.: Andy Spackman Harold B. Lee Library Brigham Young University Provo, UT 84602

TEL: (801) 378-4155 FAX: (801) 378-6347 OCLC Symbol: UBY e-mail: andy_spackman@byu.edu

If the request is sent by regular mail, please ask your library to make the request on their official library letterhead. The response time for these requests varies and depends mostly on how quickly your library can process the request. The BYU interlibrary loan office (ILL) is usually very efficient and prompt. There is no charge for loans from our library. In some cases the item you request cannot be loaned but may be photocopied. In these cases the ILL office will notify you in advance of the cost. Requests for copies of manuscript scores and assistance with archival materials can be sent directly to the curator of the Archive at the address below:
