Current Columbia students, faculty and staff may use the Search For an Item Not on Shelf web form to request that a search be conducted for an item that was not located on the shelf. In order to use this service, a valid UNI and password are required.

Visitors and other library patrons who are unable to use the web form may print this form, and hand it in at a Circulation desk. Search forms are also available at the Circulation desks. A search will be conducted by library staff, and the library patron will be notified of the search results by email.

Current Columbia University students, faculty and staff may want to use the Borrow Direct or Interlibrary Loan services in order to obtain the item.
