To search:

If you want only books/videos/music in the UO Library system:

To broaden your search - If you want books, videos, or other material in the UO Library system and the consortium of 37 colleges and universities in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho: use UO and Summit (Summit materials generally arrive within five days)

If you want to broaden your search even further - Use WorldCat to search beyond the UO Library and the consortium. These materials are requested through Interlibrary Loan and may come from any library (Books and AV items arrive within an average of 10 days.) On the Libraries' homepage http://library.uoregon.edu/ you'll see:

Want materials (e.g., books, articles) that the library doesn't have? Use Interlibrary Loan!

Submit an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) request if you need something that isn't available in the UO Libraries collection and we will try to get it for you.
