Materials from Other Libraries (Information Delivery Services - {I.D.S.})

Books obtained via I.D.S. are checked out to the patron by the I.D.S. office. Patrons are notified via e-mail or phone and pick up the items at the Circulation and Reserves desk.
Contact the I.D.S. office 48 hours before the due date to request renewals of materials. Renewals are dictated by the library that has loaned the material to us.
The fine for an overdue book obtained via Information Delivery Services from another library is $1.00 a day, WITH NO MAXIMUM AMOUNT.
Due to the costs associated with obtaining books from other libraries, a fine of $3.00 per item will be charged for items ordered via I.D.S. and not picked up within 10 days of the date the patron was notified of the arrival of the item.
I.D.S. services are available for all SUNY Open Access Students.
