For Interlibrary Loans, items must be collected and returned to the same pick up location.

Tertiary educational libraries across Australia

TAFE Digital students currently enrolled in a course and able to visit a member library in another state may be eligible to participate in the National Reciprocal Borrowing scheme. This is a free service.  Please contact a TAFE NSW Library  or the Chat line first for assistance. You will need a TAFEcard to access this service.

Sometimes you may only need a few pages of an available TAFE NSW library resource. Library staff can provide you with a scan for personal study purposes.

To use this service please contact:

• your local library, who can manage the request for you
• or the Ask a Librarian Service.

Please note:

• The resource scan will be sent to you via your TAFE NSW email address.
• You will need to provide the details of the resource and the chapter/pages/article you would like to have copied.
• The amount we can copy for you across all TAFE NSW Libraries from a single title is restricted by Australian copyright law. Generally, this will be 10% or one chapter or article.
