Changes to Interlibrary Loan (OCLC) Requests

OCLC requests now cost $10.50 but MelCat requests are still free

We want to inform you of an important update to our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) services.

 

There is now a **$10.50 fee** for each ILL request made through the Peabody (OCLC) system, which includes software usage ($5.50 per request) and postage or shipping ($5.00).

This change is due to a significant increase in postage costs incurred by the Library and a change in software for processing OCLC requests. 

**Please Note:** Ordering items from other Michigan libraries through MeLCat remains free of charge.

We appreciate your understanding as we continue to provide valuable services to our community.

Thank you for your continued support!

**Grace A. Dow Memorial Library**
