Request a recall

A recall requests will be sent to the user who has an item checked out asking them to bring it back to the library by a specified date.

You can place a recall on an item by selecting the "request" button at the top of the item information in our catalog. When the item is returned, you will be notified to pick it up.

Request book via Interlibrary Loan

If you are affiliated with UNLV (faculty, student or staff), you may choose to place an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) request for the item instead. Borrowing the material from another library is often faster than a local, recall request.
