EZ-Borrow allows Point Park University students, staff, and faculty to borrow books from participating PALCI institutions. If the Point Park University Library does not own an item you need, you can search and request items from other regional academic libraries using EZ-Borrow.
The items you request will be delivered directly to the Point Park University Library. Items are generally delivered within 3 to 5 days and you will be notified via email when the requested material is available for pickup.
The EZ-Borrow system handles requests for books only. If you need a photocopy of an article or a book that cannot be found by using EZ-Borrow please request it through Interlibrary Loan.
To search and request books using EZ-Borrow follow the 2 steps below:
1. Search PointCat to determine whether the Point Park University Library owns the item(s) you need.
2. If the item(s) is NOT currently owned by the Point Park University Library or is currently checked out / missing / unavailable, then click on EZ-Borrow and follow the instructions to search and request the desired item.
