LINK+ is a hard copy book / media borrowing consortium in California and Nevada. If a patron is looking for a known item in OSCAR and it's not available, click the LINK+ icon to see if it is available from another library in the network. You may also search LINK+ directly, but you will want to make sure that an item is not available at SCU before you request it from another institution. To use LINK+, there is no additional registration--we use our Library Barcodes (printed on the back of the Access Card) to place LINK+ requests. Items arrive in 2-4 days--generally more quickly via LINK+ than they would via ILLiad.
***Due to licensing restrictions, eBooks are not eligible to be shared between institutions, via ILLiad or LINK+***

It might be useful to also look for ebooks if you are not on campus or would prefer to only find books online. This is the easiest way to filter your search to ebooks only.
For example: slave narratives
OSCAR catalogs the library's print and electronic books, journals and other resources. If you find something that fits your topic and you are not onsite, you can request for the book to be delivered to your home. Learn more through the Library and Learning Commons Services Update - COVID-19 guide.
