Material Receipt

Allow at least two weeks for the material to arrive. Articles requested from out-of-state libraries usually take longer.

Only one or two articles at a time will be faxed directly to patrons when requested.

Fees

Generally journal articles are $10 per article regardless of the number of pages, and books are $10-$20 per book.

If the article is faxed, there is a $3.00 extra charge.

Full-time/part-time state contract faculty at WVSOM will receive unlimited inter-library loans in support of their functions as faculty members. Other faculty, staff, WVSOM students, and licensed or certified community health professionals will receive at no cost, inter-library loan items which are free to WVSOM.

WVSOM will absorb the cost of ten items per fiscal year for these individuals. The library will obtain items beyond ten at the patron's expense.

General Public may request inter-library loan articles. Only the cost incurred will be charged. If an article is free to us, then we will not charge the patron. If there is a charge from another library for the article, then we will pass that charge to the patron.
