Interlibrary Loan Request

Lending of SearchOhio library collections is paused while OhioLINK and SearchOhio upgrade technology.

If the item you are looking for is not in our catalog, please fill out the form below or call the Ask Me Line at 937-463-2665 for assistance. Please note that interlibrary loans may take several weeks to arrive.

If we are unable to locate your item, we will search the rest of the Ohio using the OCLC WorldShare interlibrary loan service.

You may only have 5 WorldShare interlibrary loan requests at any given time.

Please review the checklist below for OCLC WorldShare requirements.

  • Make sure the item you are requesting is not already owned by Dayton Metro Library. If it is and all copies are checked out, please reserve the item online.
  • Make sure you do not owe $10.00 or more in fees.
    Check your account online (under Fees ).
  • Please use your own personal Dayton Metro Library card. You must be at least 18 years of age to request items via WorldShare interlibrary loan.
  • We cannot use Outreach, Classroom, eCard, Student, Connection, New (accounts created less than 4 weeks ago), or consortium (Troy and Bradford) cards to place WorldShare requests.
  • If you wish to renew your WorldShare interlibrary loan item please call 937.496.8613 one week before the due date.
