Books owned by the MU Libraries, but are checked out or otherwise unavailable, should be checked in MERLIN/MOBIUS before requesting on ILL@MU.
We generally do not request any item in the MU Libraries' collections, unless it is unavailable or we are missing the periodical issue. Please contact the Ellis Interlibrary Borrowing Department at ellisi@missouri.edu or 573-882-1101 to inquire before placing a request for an item that is owned by the MU Libraries.
