How to Use LTC Student–Initiated Interlibrary Loan (BadgerCat/Worldcat)

Materials not available at LTC library may be electronically requested through interlibrary loan from other libraries in the state. Items can be requested from a workstation in the library or from home. You must have a student ID number in order to complete the process.

Here’s how it works:

You will find BadgerCat/Worldcat at:
LTC home –>My LTC–>LTC Library–>Other Library Catalogs–>Badgercat/Worldcat
Or http://ltc-web1.gotoltc.edu:2048/login?url=http://firstsearch.oclc.org/fsip

Enter your LTC ID number.

Search BadgerCat to identify an item that is not owned by LTC Library.

Submit an electronic request form for the identified item by clicking the “Borrow this item from another library (Interlibrary Loan)”.

Go to My Account–> enter your User Name & Password–>Click button to agree to conditions.

To create a new account click on My Account–> New User Registration–> Enter all required information.

Read over your personal information and click the Submit button.

Staff at LTC Library will see the request in their electronic interlibrary loan file, review it, and authorize the request to be transmitted to another library.

The library that owns the requested item will locate the item on their shelf and send it to LTC Library.

You will be notified by phone or email when the requested item has been received and is ready for you to pick up at LTC Library.

You must return the item to LTC Library before or on the date due to avoid late fee. ($1.00 per day per item).

Contact the library staff if you have any questions. Thank you.
