If You Need An Article
Before ordering
What you need may already be at Northeastern. Did you…
- Check NuCat, our library catalog?
- Check the Ejournal Finder to see if your journal is available electronically.
- Ask a Librarian if you’re not sure, or you need help.
If NU has the article or chapter you need, either in print in the library or electronically, we will NOT process your request in ILLiad.

You may visit another library to photocopy the article yourself.

- Our partner libraries are open to current NU faculty, staff, and students for photocopying articles
