The MTU Inter-Library Loan Department handles arrangements with other libraries for borrowing materials that are unavailable from our stock.
Due to the fact that Inter-Library Loans are an increasingly expensive resource, this service is restricted to Post-graduate students and MTU staff that require loans for work-related research.
Materials are loaned to the MTU Library as a courtesy, and their conditions of use, including due dates, must be respected. Failure to return Inter-Library Loan materials on time jeopardizes the MTU Library's liaisons with other libraries and could adversely affect other patrons needing Inter-Library Loan services.
- As a result of this, some returnable items may require a deposit of €30.00
- Please note that any fines incurred are the responsibility of the requestor and their Department.
- Lending rights for items borrowed are directed by the Supplier Library and that Reference titles can only be viewed within the Library
- Users who return Inter-Library Loan materials late will be issued with a formal warning.
- Users who subsequently return Inter-Library Loan materials late will lose Inter-Library Loan privileges.
All Requests for new inter-library loans must be submitted on the official application form which can be found below.
These application forms must be signed by the relevant head of the department.
Completed application forms should be returned to the Main Library Office.
For general queries regarding this inter-library loan service or submitted requests, please e-mail library.ills@cit.ie or telephone the Library on
