Interlibrary Loan
The Merlin Catalog
Presque Isle C.L.patrons have access to over 725,000 items in our Merlin automated system using interlibrary loan. If an item you're looking for is not on our shelf or we don't own it, we can request the item from another library in the Merlin Consortium.
The WISCAT Catalog
If it can not be found in any Merlin library, we can requst the item through WISCAT; which is Wisconsin Resource Sharing. Patrons may view the catalog in WISCAT to find the desired item. However, it must be requested through your local library. If it is not found in WISCAT, your local librarian will request through our system headquarters, and the search will go nationwide. The item will be shipped to our library. You just have to come in and check it out!
Request Options
You can order items in person, over the phone or through the Merlin online catalog. Ask for assitance if you need help or you've never used this service before!
