This can vary, but using standard delivery services it can take 3-5 days. More difficult requests such as recently published, old, obscure or foreign material might take longer.

We will let you know when your book arrives, normally by email. The book is then placed in your pigeon hole with the information of the due date.
How to renew your items
If you want to renew an interlibrary loan, please do so 2-3 days before the due date by sending an email to the library. Most items can be renewed, if they are not needed by someone else.
Return items
Please return loans to the MPIM library by the due date. We will send the book to the library that originally provided the interlibrary loan.
