Lending Policies
This information is provided for interlibrary loan staff members from
libraries wishing to request materials from Concordia College. Please
contact us if your question is not answered below.
Submitting Requests
Concordia accepts requests submitted via OCLC and PALS. We also
accept requests through U.S. mail, Ariel, e-mail, or fax. We do not
accept requests from individual patrons. Contact your local library if
you would like to borrow material from our collection.
Charges
- Standard: There is a $12.00 charge for books and photocopies for
libraries that do not belong to LVIS, MINITEX, or participate in
other reciprocal agreements.
- Rush orders: We will fill rush orders for an additional fee of
$15.00. This charge applies to all rush orders, including loans to
members of LVIS or libraries participating in reciprocal agreements.
- Lost item: If an item is lost, charges will be for replacement
cost of the item plus a $10.00 processing fee.
Loan Period
All returnable items are loaned for 28 days. One renewal will be
granted for books from our general collection. No renewals will be
granted for items from our curriculum collection or for AV materials.
Exceptions may apply under special circumstances.
Non-Circulating Materials
The following items are not available for interlibrary loan.
- Periodicals
- Reference

- Microfilm
- Selected videos
- Selected Curriculum Professional materials

Delivery
- Items loaned to Minnesota libraries will be sent though the
MINITEX (MII) courier unless otherwise noted.
- Items loaned to libraries in other states will be sent via
library mail. Please return videos, CDs and other AV items in a box
rather than a jiffy bag.
- Copies will be sent via Ariel if an Ariel IP is provided. Other
copies will be sent U.S. mail. Fax delivery is available upon
request (additional charges may apply). If there are problems with
article transmission, please notify us as soon as possible. We keep
articles on file for five days and will refill the original request
within that time period. If more than five days have passed since
the original fill, please place a new request.
