While the ILL department will attempt to fill your request, There is no guarantee that it will be filled.
Points to consider before requesting:
Few libraries purchase textbooks and even fewer have the most recent editions. When libraries do purchase textbooks, they usually reserve them for campus-use only and do not lend them to other libraries. Moreover, the high demand for textbooks means that the few library copies that can be borrowed are likely to be checked out.
If we are able to borrow a copy, it usually comes from out-of-state libraries and may take 1-2 weeks to arrive.
You will not be able to keep the book for the whole semester. Due dates are set by the lending library, not by ONU. Loan periods are usually between three and six weeks.
ILL books are subject to immediate recall, so you could have to give the book back at any time.
We recommend buying or renting your textbooks when possible. You can also ask your instructor to place a copy in course reserves. 
Faculty may request a library iproxy account so that research assistants can request and check out interlibrary loan materials on their behalf. Faculty maintain responsibility for these materials. 
Distant education grads may request delivery of ILL books to their home by using the drop-down option in the IShare request, and selecting the “Mail: Online Students Only” option. Students will be responsible for the cost of returning the book to ONU.

Media in the EVIA Project consists of video collections that have been selected for inclusion by an editorial committee, and annotations have gone through a scholarly review process. The content of the Archive represents the culmination of preservation, annotation, and editorial work. The Archive is designed to be a long-term preservation repository for unedited ethnographic video recordings as well as a unique kind of peer-reviewed scholarly publication. In each collection, scholars have worked extensively with their own recordings to describe and analyze what they have documented. The growth of the content is ongoing, with collections in various stages of completion.
