If you are unable to come in to campus to pick up your ILL items for a long-term period of time, you can designate a Proxy to pick up your items for you. 

From your ILL services account, click on the "Account Settings" button.

Account Settings Button in the ILL Services Account

Under Request Preferences, enter the full name of the person you are authorizing to pick up your items. 

Proxy pickup field in account settings

 

Your proxy should come with their photo ID to pick up the material. Items will be shelved behind the Library Services Desk under your name. While your proxy is the person picking up this item(s), the item(s) will be checked out to your account, and you are responsible for the material.

Please note this will only affect requests you make after setting a proxy. For requests that have already arrived, please contact ILL staff.

If you have questions or concerns, please contact us at docdel@umd.edu
