Requesting books

Can’t find the item you want at the Provo City Library? An Interlibrary Loan (ILL) can be submitted on your behalf to another library which allows us to borrow and return materials through the mail.

• Anyone with a Provo City Library card in good standing may request an ILL item.
• We do not charge for interlibrary loans. If the item you requested is only available with charges, we will consult you before borrowing the item.

Can’t find an item you want in the library catalog? You can submit a request for the library to buy it.

• A resident of Provo
• A Provo City Library cardholder in good standing
• Homebound due to age or long-term (more than three months) illness, injury, or disability
