This service is available to ASU-Mountain Home students, ASU-Jonesboro students taking classes on the ASUMH campus, faculty, and staff.  The Norma Wood Library will not process ILL requests for students who enroll and attend classes at ASU-Jonesboro if materials are available at Dean B. Ellis Library at ASU-Jonesboro and if students are on campus during the library's open hours.

All requests must be submitted using the paper forms located in the library or by using the forms located on this Web site (see form links at top of page).   For faster service, please fill out the form as completely and accurately as possible.  Accurate personal information must be provided as well.

A maximum of two requests may be submitted per day.  Requests are limited to books and journal articles.  The library cannot fill requests for ERIC documents, but it can provide patrons with abstracts of and some full-text ERIC documents via the Internet.
