E-ZBorrow allows Temple University students, faculty, and staff to request and quickly obtain books that Temple does not own, as well as books that Temple owns that are unavailable for check-out, from nearby academic libraries.

E-ZBorrow is PALCI's (Pennsylvania Academic Library Consortium, Inc.) web gateway that allows simultaneous searching of academic library catalogs in Pennsylvania. Temple students, faculty, and staff can directly request items found in the PALCI combined catalog.

All notification is through Temple email, and available books generally arrive within 3-5 business days. Books may be borrowed for a 4-week period, with one 4-week renewal period allowed. The ID number required for logging on is your TUid. If you have any questions about logging in to E-ZBorrow, please contact a library staff member at 215 204-0744.

If you are not affiliated with a participating library, you may login as GUEST to search the libraries' catalogs.
