Document Delivery and Interlibrary Loan constitute a core service provided by the library to facilitate access to original documents / texts for both on-campus and off-campus users.

Two ways to obtain the original documents

Document Delivery: Non-returnable provision of electronic copies or photocopies for   materials unavailable in our collection.

Interlibrary Loan: Returnable lending of physical books from our holdings.

Eligibility & Workflow:

On-campus readers may request materials absent from HIT library collection.

Off-campus readers may borrow items available in HIT library physical holdings.

All requests must follow a two-step verification process：

① Confirm unavailability via library catalog search

② Submit formal application, including the detailed information of the required texts, along with the applicant’s personal information (name, student ID, and contact phone number), to the designated email address: wxcd@hit.edu.cn.

The time required to obtain documents is determined by the provider. Generally, most documents can be acquired within 1 - 3 days. However, for special documents (such as dissertations from foreign universities, documents with an excessively old publication date, microfilm versions of newspaper literature, etc.), the procedures are more complicated, and the acquisition time is longer.
