GIL Express
GIL Express allows borrowing of books from any University System of Georgia library. Books ordered through GIL Express usually arrive within 2 business days and when materials are processed and ready for pickup, an e-mail is sent to the patron.
How it works
- Search the GCSU Library Catalog. If the book is not available:
- Connect to Universal Catalog of Georgia and search title or subject.
- Click the desired title to see if book is available at one of the USG libraries.
- At the top of the page, click the GIL Express Request link.
- Select home institution from the drop-down menu, supply the Barcode number from back of GCSU ID or the Institution ID (911...), last name and log into account.
- Reenter Barcode or Institution ID.
- Click Submit Request.
- To check status of your request(s), log into My Account from the GCSU Library Catalog.
Reasons a request may fail.
- The title is available in GCSU library
- The title does not circulate.
- The title is checked out, on hold for another patron, or lost/missing
