OCLC ILL Basics (see a web version of the course)
This lively hands on workshop covers basic procedures in using the OCLC Interlibrary Loan system known as WorldCat Resource Sharing. We'll explore responsibilities as a lender and a borrower, identifying holding libraries, retrieving union list groups, choosing the right libraries from which to make a request, creating and sending requests, setting up constant data, using IFM (Interlibrary Loan Fee Management), procedures for copyright compliance, and uses for the ILL Policies Directory.
