For items linked in MelCat, you'll need to click the blue GET THIS FOR ME! link in the middle of the page. From there, select Oakland University from the list of libraries, and type in your name as it appears on your GrizzCard, as well as your GrizzNumber (if you don't know your GrizzNumber, you can locate it in the Academics portion of MySail). You can also search MelCat for books Kresge owns, but which are currently checked out to a classmate or another patron.
This guide is not exhaustive! There are plenty of other materials for deepening your research and refining your inquiry. Remember, if Kresge Library doesn't own a book or article, you can request to borrow from another library--just see the "Interlibrary Loan" box on the bottom right side. Still not sure where to begin? Feel free to contact me and ask a question!
