Truly European: interlending and document supply in Belgium at the beginning of the twenty‐first century
Abstract
Belgium, one of the smaller European Union countries, has long since integrated its interlending and document supply in a truly European context and 20 per cent of all supplies come from the document supply centres of neighbouring countries. The Belgian electronic document‐ordering system, IMPALA, is the heart of the system. New ICT developments in communication technology will render traditional ILL and document supply partly obsolete by making available full text databases.
