Omni Interlibrary Loan

Omni is York University Libraries’ interlibrary loan system that allows users to request and borrow items from other libraries and collections across Ontario, Canada, and internationally. 

Interlibrary Loan requests are placed in Omni by selecting "Get it from another library" from an item record or by using the blank request form. You must be logged in to Omni to use this service. For York faculty, staff, and students, see Making an Omni Request. You can check the status of your request(s) in My Account. For further policies and procedures and for information for external libraries, please see below.

The RACER platform for interlibrary loan has been discontinued for new requests. Previously submitted requests will be processed. Please contact the Libraries’ Resource Sharing Department if you have any questions. 

Please note: External libraries wanting to borrow from York University Libraries' collection can continue to place requests using the OCUL RACER webform until further notice.
