What is I-Share?
A consortium of academic libraries throughout Illinois. Current members of the Adler community who live near to or can commute to Illinois can use I-Share to request physical books through our consortium of academic libraries in Illinois. You can also visit our member libraries to study or use their resources on their campus. Just be sure to bring your Adler ID. See links below for which libraries are part of I-Share.
How long does it take?
- Books come physically to whichever library you select - most students prefer to pick up books at Adler.
- Usually 3-4 days to arrive at the Mosak Library
- You will receive an email when your book can be picked up
How long is the loan period?
- 4 weeks with up to 3 renewals, for 16 weeks total.
- Books may be returned to the Mosak Library or to any other I-Share library.
Can I pick up the books at the lending library, directly?
- Yes! You may pick up books in person at another I-Share library instead of having them sent to Adler. Call the other library first to make sure the book is on the shelf and have your Adler ID with you to check out. Use the links below to find a map of all I-Share libraries and an alphabetical list.
