Need a book or article that we don't own? Let us try to get it for you!
Through Interlibrary Loan (ILL) you can request materials that are not owned by
libraries in Washington County. Interlibrary Loans come from other libraries around
the country. Please allow a few weeks for processing and mailing.
Submit ILL requests online from our WorldCat
or ArticleFirst databases,
in person at the Reference desk, by phone at 503-718-2517, or by
email to ill@tigard-or.gov with the
subject line "ILL REQUEST"
and include your full name, library card number and home
phone number. Note: Service is limited to Washington County residents.
For quicker service, please provide complete and accurate information
about the requested item, if possible, including: Complete title, author, book
number (ISBN), publisher, date of publication, source of information, journal
article citation - date, pages, volume, etc.
What can you borrow? Material such as books, videos, DVDs, CDs,
microfilm, musical scores, newspaper and journal articles. Console
video games (Wii, PlayStation, Xbox, etc.) are not available through
interlibrary loan.
- We will notify you when your items arrive. There is a limit of
five active requests per patron.
- Interlibrary loans requested at the Tigard Public Library
can only be picked up at, and returned here.
- Requests for materials published this calendar year should be submitted
as a suggestion for purchase,
rather than interlibrary loan requests.
- Most ILL requests can be filled at no charge. If a lending library charges
fees to borrow their materials, we would notify you before proceeding.
