On August 1st, faculty members will be able to authorize a designated person (proxy) to request and pick-up materials in their name for Interlibrary Loan materials. Proxies are able to submit requests online as well as in person. An online request form is available at http://www.lib.uiowa.edu/hardin/illa.html. Look for the “Interlibrary Loan and Document Delivery Request System” box.
All notices will be sent to the faculty member and to the proxy.
A list of items checked out or requested via the Proxy card can be viewed by logging in to the Interlibrary Loan/Document Delivery system.
To access the proxy account, use the three sets of three numbers from the pink barcode number on the Circulation-issued proxy card as the Hawk ID. The password will be emailed to you shortly after submission of this form.
If you later wish to have the account cancelled, please contact interlibrary loan staff to cancel the account and prohibit any further checkouts or requests.
