Vermont statewide ILL system (CLOVER)
Statewide Interlibrary loan (ILL) services are administrated by the Vermont Department of Libraries CLOVER system. Member libraries can search library holdings around the state and place ILL requests.
Find information on the system from how-to documents and videos to background information on the CLOVER information page.
The majority of public, school, and academic libraries are already signed up for CLOVER Interlibrary Loan services. To check your library's status look for your library in the CLOVER login page. If your library is not listed, please contact April Shaw at April.Shaw@vermont.gov.
Each member library is required to:
- Check CLOVER requests at least twice per week.
- Keep anti-virus software on the computer used to access your CLOVER account.
- Follow the Vermont Interlibrary Loan Code.
- Review the Interlibrary Loan Best Practices.
