Georgetown University Main Campus Libraries partner with Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC) to aid research goals for active students, staff and faculty.

The following Universities participate in sharing items through the Washington Research Library Consortium: American University, The Catholic University of America, Gallaudet University, George Mason University, The George Washington University, Georgetown University, Howard University, Marymount University, and The University of the District of Columbia.

To review the Main Campus Libraries shared catalog of Georgetown and Consortium items, visit HoyaSearch.

If the Office Delivery option is not available for an item this helps indicate the item is not eligible for Office Delivery. This may include items that are checked out by other library account holders, items located overseas, non-circulating items, Special Collections, Reference materials, Government Documents, Maps, or Library Use Only items that are not allowed to leave the library.

Interlibrary Loan Requested items are part of a broader network which provides library resources from around the world. Requesting physical items through Interlibrary Loan for Office Delivery does not guarantee that any version of that item is available. Interlibrary Loan materials may take approximately 7-14 business days to arrive.
