Books from Other Libraries

If Shepard Library does not have the book you need, don't despair! You may be able to access it through one of our partners in the Triangle Research Libraries Network, or borrow it from another library using InterLibrary Loan (ILL).

Search TRLN This link opens in a new window
Joint catalog of the Triangle Research Libraries Network: Duke University, North Carolina Central University, North Carolina State University, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

If you find a book you need at another TRLN library, you can choose to travel to that library and borrow the book yourself or request it through InterLibrary Loan.
