EZBorrow

If your materials are unavailable from the CMU Libraries, you may be able to borrow them from another library using EZBorrow, a consortium of 60+ academic libraries. Requested items typically take 3-5 business days to arrive and are loaned for a maximum of 16 weeks.

**A new feature has been added to EZB! The “My Account” feature now gives you access to current and past requests as well as enables you to authenticate before initiating a search. Additionally you have the option to save searches, save items, and create lists of saved items. Link to our How To page [.pdf] for a brief overview of how this new feature works.**
