Interlibrary Loan
Procedure for borrowing from another library through Interlibrary Loan:
Interlibrary request must be made through your hometown library, so we will only take these request from Norwalk residents with a Norwalk Library card.
Requests may be placed at the Information Desks in the Adult or Children’s Departments of the Main Library, 1 Belden Avenue or at the South Norwalk Branch Library, 10 Washington Street. They may also be placed by fax or phone: Main Library 203-899-2780 x 15106 or 15109; fax 866-7982 to the attention of the information department, or online from the
ReQuest Database.
This is a statewide database that you must login to using your library card barcode. Once in the database, type in the title, author or keyword of what you are looking for, click on the correct title from the list. Once you are into the item record there should be a button on the right side of the screen "Request this Item" , click on that to interlibrary loan the item from another library. Materials must be picked up and returned at the library where you placed the request.
