International Interlibrary Loan Service

Interlibrary Loans Service lends publications owned by the Moravian Library to other libraries. It also provides photocopies of serial articles. Requests for ILL will be accepted from any national, university, public or special library within Czech Republic and internationally.  

We provide loans of publications and copies of articles from periodicals held in the collections of other Czech and international libraries in case you do not find the document in the MZK stock. 

Interlibrary Services for our users

To search the Moravian Library collection, check vufind.mzk.cz - the Library online catalogue (listing all post-1994  material). Materials publisher before 1994 could either be in the online catalogue or in the card catalogue.
