If we don't have what you're looking for in our collection we can borrow most materials from other libraries.  Interlibrary loan forms can be obtained from the circulation desk, or you can request materials online via our Web2 Catalog. All interlibrary loan materials borrowed from Montville must be returned to Montville.

Regarding "HOLDS" - for all items showing AVAILABLE in the catalog for which a hold has been placed, there will be a 24 to 48 hour delay in processing. We will call you as soon as the item is available for pick up. Items coming from other libraries, depending upon availability, may take several weeks to process.
