What is E-ZBorrow?
A service provided by PALCI (Pennsylavania Academic Library Consortium, Inc.) of which Gannon is a member. The service enables the Gannon community to borrow books (and only books) unavailable at Nash Library directly from the over 40 participating academic libraries in the consortium.
