The timeline for receiving Interlibrary Loans (ILL) can vary:
- Most items from Ontario university libraries arrive within 3-5 business days.
- Most items from other Canadian libraries arrive within 2-3 weeks.
- International items (including items from the United States) usually take around 3 weeks or more.
Digitized portions of books or articles are usually quicker to arrive because they can be scanned and emailed.
