PURCHASE REQUESTS
Is there a book or video you would like to see on our shelves? The UMW Libraries welcome recommendations from faculty, staff, and students for materials to be purchased for our collections. Please submit your requests online via our new Purchase Request Form. While we cannot guarantee that all requested items will be purchased, all input is appreciated and will be considered! If you need the requested item immediately, please place an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) Request via ILLIAD and we will attempt to borrow the item for you from another library.
