Information for First Time Users

To request an item through Interlibrary Loan, you must first register for an ILLIAD acount. Registration has three purposes:

• Entering your personal information into the ILLiad system means you will not have to supply the information again when making future requests.
• Having your IUP e-mail and regular mail addresses on file with Interlibrary Loan enables us to notify you promptly and deliver materials accurately.
• By specifying a Username and Password of your choosing, you will have secure access to information about your requests and be able to view the list of items you have requested in the past.

About your Username and Password

During registration, you will be asked to enter a Username and Password. You will use this Username and Password when logging on to the ILLiad system in the future.

Username

This must be your IUP Network Username (4 or 5 letters).

Password

Choose anything you like. This password does not have to match your IUP Network Password. We recommend that you follow good security practice and choose a password that is different from those you use to access other systems.
