The interlibrary loan service can be used to locate and obtain the original or a copy of any kind of document that cannot be found at the CRAI and that is not available at other Catalan universities through the PUC. It also centralizes the loan of UB items to other institutions. This is a paid service.
Before you request a document via the interlibrary loan service, check the CRAI Catalog and the University Union Catalog of Catalonia (CCUC). Remember that the free PUC or library consortium loans service entitles users of libraries in the Consortium of University Services of Catalonia (CSUC) to request and borrow items from other members of the Consortium.
