Request an Item

Request items for pickup using Compass, the library catalog. When placing request, select one of the following locations for pick-up: Main Library, Music Library, Iliff Library, or Law Library. The Main Library stacks are also open to DU students, faculty and staff for browsing and self-retrieving material.

Requested items are delivered to the Perlmutter Lending Desk in the Anderson Academic Commons at least once a day from the Music Library, Iliff Library, and Law Library. Deliveries are made from the Hampden Center on Tuesdays and Fridays.
 

  • What if an item isn't available through DU?

    If a circulating item is not available according to the University Libraries Catalog, try searching Prospector. Make a request in Prospector by selecting "Alliance - U of Denver" as your affiliated institution. You will be notified by email when it is ready for pickup.

    If an item is not available through the DU Libraries collections nor through Prospector, you may place an Interlibrary Loan request. You will be notified by email when it is ready for pickup.
