If you can't find a specific item in our catalogue, you can place a request for the item using the interlibrary lending form.  To log in to that site:

• Password - Your last name, exactly as it is spelled on your library account.  To double check the spelling, please log in to the Novanet catalogue by selecting the StFX patron option and using your webFX credentials to authenticate.
