Materials at Other Libraries

Resource Sharing

If you need a resource that isn't available through the PAU Library (or the Stanford University Libraries, if you're affiliated with the PsyD Program), you're welcome to submit an interlibrary loan (ILL) request to see if the resource can be shared by another library. If the resource isn't available through ILL, we generally recommend contacting your local public library to inquire about available resource sharing options.

If you live in California or Nevada, contact your local public library and ask about Link+.  Link+ is a resource sharing service that gives borrowers access to thousands of scholarly books from across its network. If your local public library belongs to the Link+ network, the books you request will be delivered so you can check them out in person, free of charge, usually within three or four days.

Academic Libraries

Some colleges and universities offer alumni and/or visitor access. Alumni and visitor access policies and contact information can usually be found online, as in the case of the Stanford University Libraries. 

Next Steps

If all else fails, please don't hesitate to ask the PAU Librarians for assistance with finding elusive materials or alternative resources that will work for your purposes. We're always happy to help!
