How to Use Gil Express

Gil Express

Gil Express allows you to borrow books from any University System of Georgia library. Books you order through this service will generally arrive within 2 working days to the circulation desk at GCSU. When the items you ordered arrive, you will be notified through the e-mail address on record at the library, or you can simply check at the desk within 2-3 days of ordering.

How it works

Connect to the Universal Catalog of Georgia and search for your title or subject.

Click on the desired title to see if it is available at any library listed as the owner. If it is available at one library at least, click on the Request link.

Select your home institution from the drop-down menu, enter your library barcode number (on your school ID card) or Social Security number, your last name, and click on Logon to My Account.

On the next screen, you will be asked to re-enter your library barcode or Social Security number

Then click on Submit Request

To check on the status of your request at any time, simply log in to My Account from our GCSU library catalog

Some reasons the request may fail

The title is available in our library
The title does not circulate at the library that owns it
The title is checked out, on hold for another user, or lost/missing
Your record is "blocked" because of overdue library laterials, fines, or fees

If you have questions about Gil Express, please call the library circulation desk at 445-4047.
