To start, “sign in” by clicking on the icon in the upper-right-hand corner of the screen.
Step #2: Expanding the Search
For physical items like print books, use the search bar drop-down menu & select CSCU Library Consortium:
For digital items like journal articles, the consortium option is already available but you may find even more results by switching on the Expand My Results toggle in the left-hand menu of your results page.
Step #3: Browsing
Search by keyword; browse your results.
Step #4: Requesting
Once you find an item you want to have delivered, select Request from Another Library.
After a short delay, a box will appear to confirm CT State Northwestern as your pickup institution (for physical items). Click Request again to finalize the process.
Step #5: Wrapping Up
When the item arrives at the Northwestern Library, you will be notified via your CT State email.
You did it! And remember, if you have further questions please contact your friendly librarian!
