Hi,


We signed onto the Get It Now service this past summer and it really hasn't lived up to it's promise.  The license is no fee, but you do have to sign an agreement with CCC.  We use OCLC's WorldShare ILL service and the two do not work as smoothly as we had first thought.   We started with the mediated service model and had hoped to transition to the unmediated model, but am not so sure now.  Mainly, the problem that we have had is that, we'll order an article and CCC cancels the request, but we don't get the notice.  It's supposed to go to our ILL email, but it's not and I've been emailing back and forth with CCC and OCLC support about this.


Steve, if you could share the information that you mentioned below that would be helpful.
