Hello:
Thank you for all who sent your responses to my query regarding
integrating Inter Library Loans into Acquisitions.
We are working with the positive information received from several
institutions who have been successful, and will definitely in the future
will be querying them on their different processes.
Here is a brief summary:
* Some are planning to do this next year which follows our time frame
and we will be sharing with them our feedback
* some just made this organizational change compared to some
institutions which made this change several years ago
* overall many have benefited by having just in time acquisitions
through ILL requests, and this integration works well with the shift
toward patron driven acquisitions
* we did receive responses from some small libraries - our FTE is
close to 30,000
I hope this information is helpful.
regards,
Anne Deacon
