You connect to ILLiad using your TWU Portal username and password.

The first time you use this system you must complete the registration form.  Please provide all the required information.  While other information is not required, submitting this information is helpful.

DISTANCE STUDENTS:  Please indicate your “Preferred Loan Delivery Method“ as “mail to address” unless you would prefer to pick up materials at a TWU Campus Library.

TEXTBOOKS are not available via Interlibrary Loan

Materials will be obtained at no cost whenever possible and you will be notified before charges are incurred. When your material has been received you will be notified via email.
