If Wheaton College doesn't own the video or DVD you want:
  1. Search Illinet Online to see if a copy is available at another Illinois library. Items in Illinet Online may be requested for delivery to Buswell.
  2. Search WorldCat to see if a copy is available on interlibrary loan. Requests for interlibrary loan may be placed directly in WorldCat.
