Interlibrary Loan Guidelines and Forms


Interlibrary Loan is a service available to current A-B Tech students, faculty, and staff with active library accounts in good standing.

Before You Request

Please first check the Evergreen Catalog to see if the Don C. Locke Library or another NC community college in our consortium owns the item. If available, you may place a hold directly through Evergreen.

 

How to Request Items

If your item isn't available in Evergreen, you may request it using one of the following online forms:

You will be asked to confirm that you’ve read and agree to our ILL Guidelines.

 

Important Notes

  • Textbooks and media are not available through ILL.
  • Limit: Maximum of 3 active ILL items per patron.
  • Processing Time: Requests are processed within 3 business days. Arrival may take 2–3 weeks.
  • Cost: Most ILLs are free. If a fee is required, you’ll be contacted before your request is processed. Indicate your maximum acceptable fee on the request form.

 

After You Submit

  • You’ll be notified when your item arrives via your preferred contact method.
  • Due dates are set by the lending library. Please respect them to maintain borrowing privileges.
  • Renewals must be requested before the due date — in person, by phone at (828) 398-7572, or by email at jordanmmoon@abtech.edu.

 

Fines & Fees

  • Overdue items incur a $2.00/day fine.
  • Lost items: You’re responsible for replacement and processing fees set by the lending library.
  • Items overdue for more than two weeks without communication will result in an automatic invoice for replacement from the lending library. The patron will be responsible for the replacement cost.
