State Library of Louisiana

The State Library of Louisiana provides courier service for the sharing of library materials among libraries in the state of Louisiana, both public and academic. Please check below for the list of libraries and the schedule of delivery days.

The State Library’s collection is available to all citizens. You are welcome to visit the Library Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Materials that are available for checkout can be requested through your local library and we will gladly ship them to you. The State Library does not charge a fee for the loan of materials. Printing rates are currently $0.10 per page for black and white, and $0.50 per page for color.

 

If your library does not own materials a patron wishes to borrow, the State Library will be happy to loan through LoanSHARK, Louisiana’s own statewide interlibrary loan system or OCLC, the worldwide interlibrary loan system. The State Library does not charge a fee for the loan of materials, other than to recover photocopying charges.
