How it works

 

You can get books from Kent Library, over 60 Missouri libraries (through the MOBIUS book sharing system), or from libraries across the United States, absolutely free!

 

Books can be delivered to Perryville, Sikeston, Malden, or Kennett.  They can also be delivered to Three Rivers Community College, Mineral Area College, or any of the MOBIUS member libraries across Missouri.

 

If you are experiencing extenuating circumstances that prohibit you from accessing or retrieving materials, please contact the reference desk to request special accommodations.

 


 

How to request books

 

You can search for books in Kent Library or in the MOBIUS system.  If you have a book title that you can't find here, go to the Interlibrary Loan page to request it.

 

Kent Library Catalog

Search for a book by keyword, title, or author.  If you find the item, hit the Request button:

Request this title

If you do not find the item, hit the Search MOBIUS button to search the MOBIUS catalog:

(Search MOBIUS Union Catalog)

MOBIUS Catalog

When you have found an item you want, click on Request this Item. Enter Galahad as your cluster.  Enter your name exactly as it appears on your Redhawks card.  Enter your ID number exactly as it appears on your Redhawks card + the letters SEMO (example: s02345678semo).

 


 

How books are delivered

 

Books sent from one MOBIUS library to another (example: from Washington University to Kent Library) are checked out with a student Redhawks card.   Books shipped to Kennett, Malden, Sikeston, or Perryville are processed through Kent Library first.  Students do not need to check books in or out that are shipped to these locations.  They will automatically be checked in and out for you.

 


How to renew books

You can renew your books online. Just login to View Your Record.  You can also call the circulation desk at 573-651-2232.
