Athena
Athena is an online catalog of selected Nashville area libraries. It allows area libraries to borrow from and lend materials to each other quickly. A courier service delivers to the ILL office Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
There is an ILL form built into the Athena catalog. After searching in Athena, click on the title of a book you would like to request. The following page should list bibliographic information about the book. In the top right hand corner of the page there is an Interlibrary Loans button. Click on that button, fill out the request form, and click Submit at the bottom of the screen. Your request will be submitted electronically to the ILL office.
WorldCat
Can't find it in CUB Cat or Athena, then try WorldCat, an online catalog of thousands of libraries' holdings. It has over 52 million records. Use the Belmont online forms to request items from WorldCat.
