From traditional inter‐library loan to a new interlending model – the role of the CURL monograph interlending pilot
Abstract
The traditional inter‐library loan of monographs is often seen as the future niche of interlending activity, with journal article supply being catered for by other means, such as full text access through e‐journals. Examines how a monograph interlending pilot project, undertaken by CURL institutions, is part of a move towards a more distributed interlending model for the UK. Describes the project, presents statistical figures, and outlines results from feedback questionnaires. Shows the relationship to SHARES, RLG’s interlending program, and how the pilot has affected international interlending. Calls for other models to support the new interlending paradigm.
