Calling all Inter-Library Loan patrons!
We’re moving over to using the British Library’s new managment system for their Document Supply Service which we use to provide the majority of items you request. It brings some benefits we hope you will like:
- Colour: Secure Electronic Deliveries (SEDs) and photocopies will now be in full colour unless the original item is black and white
- No recall: Inter-library loans will no longer be recalled from you early, you will keep your item until the original due date every time
- Quicker delivery: Faster turnaround of items on loan at the British Library means items we are waiting for arrive quicker
We don’t anticipate your experience of requesting and receiving Inter-Library Loan items to change unduly, but as one of the first six universities in the country to adopt this new system we may experience some minor teething troubles during the first few weeks. We hope you can bear with us while we iron out any issues.
