The WMU Library can borrow material from other libraries. This is primarily done within Sweden and the Nordic countries. In some cases, we also borrow from the rest of Europe. If your research concerns older material, or material outside our subject fields, you can request an interlibrary loan to assist your research. Interlibrary loans may only be collected onsite due to copyright restrictions.
