Inter-Library Loans

Dallas County Library is part of MALA (Mid-America Library Alliance) in which we are able to easily borrow and lend materials to other libraries in the area. Most materials can be borrowed at no charge, unless the book is outside out our borrowing region, in which we will ask if you want to continue with the search for the material(s), plus $2 for shipping and handling.

If there are items you would like to borrow, but are not found in our catalog, we can acquire them through MALA, if available, via Inter-library Loan. To submit an Inter-library Loan request, please send your request to: dallascountylibrary@gmail.com  or come in to fill out a request in person. Please provide as much information about the item as you can, including author, title, type of material etc., as this will help us to more easily locate the correct item(s).

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to give us a call at (417) 345-2647
