Hi all,
I'm sending ILL instruction docs again, just in case anyone has missed
them. They are not on the USL website as of yet, and I want everyone to
know about the changes that OCLC has made to the functionality of
WorldShare ILL. Page 3 of the Loan document outlines new guidelines for
filling in request forms. Hopefully this will make it easier to submit
requests. A title and author are pretty much all I need for most request. I
typically don't use ISBNs anymore because of the enhanced searching OCLC
has made for WorldShare ILL. 🙂
Please be aware that LSTA funding is secure for this federal fiscal year
and next (I think until Sept. 30, 2027), so if you are counting on grant
money, it is available for your library to provide your patrons ILL
service. 🙂
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Sarah Pitkin
