What is Interlibrary Loan?
Interlibrary loan (ILL) is a service we provide to currently enrolled Trevecca students and Trevecca employees. If there is material you need for your research that you cannot find at Waggoner Library, we can request it from other libraries and have them send it to us. Once the material is here you can check it out from us, use it and then return it to us, and we will take care of getting it back where it belongs! If it is an article you are looking for, it will be sent directly to your email.
Making an ILL Request
You can request items online through interlibrary loan in one of two ways:
1. Find the item in Discovery and click on its title to view the details. There will be a purple 'Request Item through Interlibrary Loan' button that you can click which will attach the item's information to your request, so that you don't have to type it out.
2. If the ILL request button for a title in Discovery is unavailable, use our online interlibrary loan form (you will need to type in the item details)
Important Notes: Your Trevecca email and the 11-digit Campus ID number from your ID card are both required on all ILL requests. Contact the library if you do not have your 11-digit campus ID number.
If you have questions or need assistance, please call the ILL office (615-248-1548) or email us (ill@trevecca.edu)

From numerous computers and individual study carrels to collaborative study rooms, we have a variety of spaces and tools for you to use.
Where can I work with a group of friends?
Study rooms are found on the main and second floors, all of which are reservable. The majority seats up to four. Most rooms have a whiteboard wall and network/electrical connections. Dry-erase markers with cleaner can be checked out from the library services desk. See below for reservation details.
Book a Group Study Room
Study rooms on the main and second floors can be reserved for a max of 3 hours.
Click here to view available rooms, then make your reservation. When you arrive at your reserved time and find that others are using the room, ask the librarian for assistance. The rooms may be used without making a reservation, but those with an approved booking have priority. Note: Doctoral study rooms are checked out separately and are for use by TNU doctoral students only.
The Silent Study Room, located on the library's top floor near the restrooms, is a space dedicated to independent, quiet study. A variety of seating options help to ensure focused studying. Bring your air pods or headphones if you need to listen to something. The room is open during library hours.
Students can print to the TNU-Print printers. Print jobs are released by tapping your ID on the printer.
Food-free zones are located around the computers on the main floor and in the Library Instruction Room. Waggoner NINETEEN| 01 serves coffee, tea, pastries, and grab-n-go lunches on the main floor. A soft drink machine is found on the ground floor, near the restrooms. Be mindful of keeping your space clean.
The library services desk has headphones, laptops, and whiteboard markers for student check-out in the library. Just be sure you have your TNU student ID handy.
Do you need headphones, charging cables, tabletop whiteboards, markers/erasers, or ring lights for videoing? The library has those plus more gadgets & technology to check out to use in the library. Some can even be checked out for a few days! Need some stress relief? Check out a crochet kit, a hammock, or maybe a board game! For more information about what can be checked out, click here.
