What are 探勘者 and 馆际互借? 

箴spector and 馆际互借 are both services that can help you access library materials that we don’t own at 科罗拉多大学. They are similar but if you understand the differences between the services, you can get what you need faster and easier. 

探勘者 is a local (Colorado and Wyoming) interlibrary service for students, 工作人员, 和老师, ideal for borrowing more commonly available books and media. 搜索 探勘者 first for faster turnaround. 24-7通过 探勘者网站 and manage renewals through your regular library account.  Direct questions about 探勘者 to the 循环 department at tuttcirc@volamdolong.com or at the 循环 Desk or see the 政策页面 for more details. 

馆际互借 is a service that supplies articles, scanned chapters, and harder-to-find books. Sign up or sign-in to your 生病了 account 在这里. Note that 生病了 is managed separately from your regular library account and 探勘者. Use 生病了 for requesting journal articles and book chapters, and for books you can’t access through 探勘者. 图书查询, start by 搜索ing WorldCat—an international library catalog with thousands of participating libraries. When signed into your 生病了 account you can request books through WorldCat or articles through our databases and the citation will autofill into your request form. 欲了解更多信息，请参阅生病了网页. Direct questions to tuttill@volamdolong.com. 

*Remember when 搜索ing for books, spelling and punctuation count! 与谷歌 探勘者, WorldCat, and our website don’t have the ability to predict and correct spelling. If you are unsure, 搜索 in Google first and cut and paste the title to 搜索 it. Also try removing punctuation when doing a keyword 搜索. 

探勘者和. 馆际互借——我该用哪个? 

的图书: Try the CC library catalog first using a Books and Media 搜索 on the home page. Then 搜索 探勘者 if you can’t find what you need in our catalog. Lastly, 搜索 WorldCat for harder to find materials. 探勘者 is faster on average because you can place requests and get a response on weekends, and since it’s local and delivered through our courier system. 馆际互借 can take longer for physical media as books are shipped through the mail. 

For journal articles and book chapters that we don’t have access to through One搜索 or our databases, place an article request through 馆际互借.

值得注意的常见问题的 & 免责声明: 

Don’t forget the power of Google to find electronic materials and check spelling for title 搜索es. Many articles and dissertations requested through 生病了 can be found with a quick Google 搜索—try putting the title in quotation marks. Did you know that articles available through Science Direct will come up automatically when you Google them while on campus? Then try One搜索 as a next step for 搜索ing articles. 还是找不到你需要的东西? Talk to a re搜索 librarian in person or on chat. 

Be careful with your 生病了 and 探勘者 books!  Fines for 生病了 are decided by the lending library— we can’t control them.  Avoid proximity to drinks and water bottles. Do not underline or make notes, even in pencil.  

Please leave all paperwork and labels attached to 生病了 books so they can be checked in properly. 

E-books are not usually borrowable through 生病了 because of publisher contracts. T在这里 are some exceptions, but most of the time physical books are the rule for 生病了. 

生病了 is not able to scan chapters from books we own. Patrons should visit Tutt to check out the book or scan the chapter as needed. 

生病了 and 探勘者 do not supply non- circulating physical materials like journal issues, newspapers, magazines and bound journal volumes.
