Are you missing a book or journal article that is not available in Mainz libraries? No problem. Simply order via the interlibrary loan service from other libraries.
The First Time
A valid library card from Mainz University Library is required to use the interlibrary loan service.
A processing fee of €2 is charged for each item requested, regardless of whether the request is successful.
You will receive a confirmation e-mail each time you place an interlibrary loan order in the Research Portal. The processing fee will be credited to your library account. You may pay the incurred interlibrary loan fees within 4 weeks either in person at the Central Library or at one of the branch libraries, or by bank transfer to the following account:
Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz
IBAN: DE15 5535 0010 0200 1322 98
BIC: MALADE51WOR
Rheinhessen Sparkasse
Please be sure to include “Fernleihgebühren” (interlibrary loan fees) and your library card number in the payment reference.

Place your order online, and we will handle the rest. As soon as your literature has arrived, we will notify you by e-mail.
