ILLO INTERLIBRARY LOAN
INFO – INFORMATION NETWORK FOR ONTARIO
Using INFO (Information Network for Ontario), libraries can provide for the information, cultural and recreational needs of their community, using the resources of public libraries across the province and beyond. INFO incorporates web-based interlibrary loan management software (VDX) with the catalogues of public libraries across the province.
Anyone can use the VDX search engine to see what is held in various public library collections. Library users must understand that not all items, that appear on a VDX search, will be available for Interlibrary Loan. To search INFO for possible Interlibrary Loans, try the link below:
REQUESTING AN ILLO:
To Request an InterLibrary Loan, drop by or call the library at 905 355-3722. Patrons can request up to two ILLO items at a time. There is a fee charged for items that are not picked up as well as fines for overdue items.
As of April 2019, the courier system operated by Southern Ontario Library System was dissolved due to funding cuts. All items are mailed through Canada Post at a cost to the library.
FINES:
Overdue ILLO - $1.00 per day
ILLO ordered but not collected by patron before due date - $10.00
