How do I get materials not in the Online Catalog?

If you have already checked the online catalog and can’t find what you are looking for, you can check MnLINK.  Click MnLink on the online catalog menu bar. This opens a window to the MnLINK search page.  If you expect to be requesting materials, you can click the <Sign In> button.  You’ll be prompted to enter your fourteen digit library card number.  You do not need to enter a PIN or password. The pickup location defaults to your home library.  Click the <Sign In> button.  You’ll be returned to the basic search page.  After you find the title you want to request, click the <Get It> button in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Then click the Request via InterLibrary Loan link.  Find the Pickup Location box, and select a pickup library from the list of Traverse des Sioux member libraries, then click the red <Submit> button.  The system assigns an ILL tracking number.  You can track the status of your request by signing in to MnLINK at any time and clicking the My Requests link.  Click the Sign out link on the far left column to end your session.  The TdS member library that you selected for pickup will notify you when your ILL item has been received.
