Need an item we don't have in the library? No problem. Chances are very good that our Interlibrary Loan department can have the item (or a copy of it) sent to Kresge Library for you. There is no charge for this service for OU students, staff, and faculty. Persons not currently affiliated with Oakland may order ILL materials if they purchase a Kresge Library Guest Card and pay a fee of $10 per request

Do you have an item that's soon-to-be-due? Something that's overdue? Renew it over the phone before those late fees rack up.
