Other Libguides from Southeastern
Resources for Inter-library loan
This libguide has a variety of resources for ILL practitioners. It includes information on Southeastern's services, national resources, conferences, list-servs, publications, and copyright.
Guest and Community Borrowing
Southeastern maintains a directory of academic libraries in the area that offer guest / community borrowing of materials and on-site use of their materials. This can be useful if a patron needs resources from a non-SEAL library, or if ILL would not meet their needs.
