Interlibrary Loan

Interlibrary Loan
If you need a book or article that the Jackson State Community College Library doesn't own, please contact Vanessa Jones at 731-424-3520 ext. 50325 or by email at vjones13@jscc.edu
Provide her with the author, title, date of publication and publisher.

The Library will then ask another library to loan us the book. We use the Online College Library Center to connect us to most academic libraries in the country.

It takes about 2 weeks for a book to be sent here from another library.
