The University Library obtains books, photocopies of periodical articles, microfilm and other materials from other libraries in Italy and abroad.

Academic and non-academic members and students can send requests using the online ILL / DD request forms. Authentication is required.

Before submitting a request, you should also check that the item is not available in one of the libraries of the Trentino Library System and in the University Library journal catalogue.
