Interlibrary Loans
For the convenience of researchers, the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library offers copies of many of its finding aids through interlibrary loan. To obtain such finding aids, researchers should place a request through their local public or university library, specifically identifying manuscript collections of interest to their research. Our library will then send the finding aids for these collections to the requesting library for two weeks' use by the researcher. Researchers should be aware, however, that finding aids for some Eisenhower Library manuscripts collections have either not yet been prepared or are in a rudimentary stage, i. e., not yet definitive. A separate interlibrary form should be completed for each finding aid requested. No more than six finding aids will be sent at one time to a researcher. Due to the expense, this service is not available for overseas requestors.
The vast majority of oral history transcripts in the Library's holdings may also be obtained through interlibrary loan. In some cases, however, the donor has restricted use to scholars visiting the research facility. A current list of transcripts available for interlibrary loan may be obtained from the Library. Interlibrary loan requests for oral history transcripts are subject to the same limitation of six items per request.
Requests for finding aids or oral history interview transcripts through interlibrary loan should be directed to:
