If you didn't find the article in an online database, but you have its title, author, and some other citation details to help us find it, please request it by using the general ILL article request form.

For fastest service:

  • Make sure that either "Docdel" or "UO Portland" is listed in the Comments field
  • Include the journal's ISSN number if you know it
  • Include your email address in the email field


Books and other circulating materials

UO users can request books, DVDs, bound journals, and some other items be sent to the Portland Library for pickup. To request these items, look them up in the library catalog and click "Request Item/Place Hold."

Be sure to choose "UO Portland Library" as your delivery point. You may log in to your Library Account to see if requests are in transit or ready to pick up.
