Q. I searched for a book in the library and you do not have it. Is there any way you can order the book from another library for me?
Answer: In addition to the library's print collection, a number of ebook collections are provided. Gannon users have two options when the library does not have a particular title.
- Interlibrary Loan - Students and faculty on the Erie Campus are able to place requests using our Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad) service to request materials from other libraries.
- The library provides an online Ebook request form where users can submit a request for a book not currently in the library collection. As a rule, the library is not able to purchase textbooks. Staff will do our best to accommodate requests.

Q. Can I borrow a book from another school's library?
Answer: There are two ways to borrow a book from another school's library:
- Make a request using our interlibrary loan system. This is the best way, although we can't guarantee that the book you request will come from a specific library. We will do our best to accommodate your request obtaining the book from a library among our lending partners where it is available.
- Gannon students and faculty have limited walk-in borrowing privileges at Allegheny, Edinboro, Mercyhurst, and Penn State-Behrend. Individuals may physically go to the library and inquire about their borrowing rules, which vary from library to library. NOTE: Individuals should contact the library to inquire about COVID-19 lending and visiting restrictions.
