Faculty and Graduate Student Retrieval Service

GW faculty and graduate students may request Gelman Library materials using the Catalog's GW Request option.

Chapters from books can be scanned and delivered to your desktop via your My Library Account page, and books from the stacks can be retrieved and held at the Check Out Desk for you to pick up at your convenience.

Search for the GW book title in the catalog, click on the title to view the full page record, and then click the "GW Request" link under Availability.

If an item turns out to be unavailable at GW, your request can be forwarded on to another consortium library, or can be requested through Interlibrary Loan.

Questions about the Faculty and Graduate Student Retrieval Service may be directed to Glenn Canner, Manager of Resource Sharing and Course Reserves, at gcanner@gwu.edu or 202-994-0629.
