Books requested from URSUS or MaineCat arrive by van within 3-4 business days. You will receive an email when your book has arrived at the Campus Library you selected. You can always sign into your Library (URSUS) Account with your name and barcode (the 218... or 250... number on your USM ID card to check whether the book is In transit or has arrived. This account will also give you the due date and sometimes the option to renew, for books that you've already checked out.

Books requested via Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad) usually take 5-10 business days. You will receive an email when your material arrives at the Campus Library you selected. You can sign into your ILLiad Account, you will see whether the book is in transit, has arrived, or when it is due.
