ILL Reminders

We are now fully into the fall semester and the ILL requests are starting to come in. Especially requests from Dr. Oler's students. I thought we might want to brush up on the basics. All ILL requests should come through the reference desk and be signed off on by a librarian.

The ILL form pdf file is on the Reference user desktop as well as having been distributed by email earlier.
  1. The student should fill out the top of the form, read the conditions and sign.
  2. The article (including an ISSN for the journal) or book citation information should be printed out from EbscoHost or wherever it came from. This will cut down on errors and will streamline the ILL process.
  3. Once the form is completed, the citation is attached, and a librarian has signed off the form should go to Rachel's desk.

Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. We do have the basics of ILL spelled out for students here http://www.gavilan.edu/library/ill_gavilan.html
