General Comments
Please address general comments via email to register@co.anoka.mn.us. Your message will be forwarded to the appropriate staff person. Please include your library barcode or other contact information.
Interlibrary Loan
Interlibrary Loan is used to request older titles not owned by Anoka County Library.
Please first verify that Anoka County Library does not own a title by searching the library catalog by author, title, and keyword. If ACL does not own the item and it was published at least 6 months ago, you may place an online Interlibrary Loan Request using the MnLINK Gateway.
ACL will attempt to borrow the item from another library system for your use. Interlibrary loans usually take two to three weeks to receive, but may take much longer if not available in a Minnesota library.
PLEASE NOTE: You may have up to 10 active interlibrary loan requests, including requests being ordered, checked out or returned.
You may also contact a reference librarian for help with interlibrary loans at 763–717–3267 or via email at aclref@co.anoka.mn.us.
Please provide as much information as possible to assist in locating the item: Title, Author/Artist, Publisher, Year, ISBN/ISSN, and Format.
For titles published within the last 6 months , please use the Purchase Suggestion form.
