  • 1.  International ILL Toolkit Webinar Recording Available

    Posted May 06, 2022 11:00 AM

    OCLC SHARES and the RUSA STARS International ILL Committee are pleased to share the recording of the International ILL Toolkit webinar, located at https://www.oclc.org/research/events/2022/international-ill-toolkit.html

     

    The International ILL Toolkit is a freely available, crowd-sourced effort, initiated by the OCLC SHARES resource sharing consortium, designed to promote and enable greater ease of global sharing among libraries. This webinar showcases components of the Toolkit, including:

    • A list of lenders from around the world with contact, delivery, and payment information  
    • Tips and tricks for international ILL by country/region 
    • Translated ILL request templates which can be copied for local use, prepared in collaboration with library professionals fluent in that language

     

    The creators of the Toolkit and the RUSA STARS International ILL Committee are currently working together to increase awareness of this resource and gather feedback on how the resource sharing community can work together to sustain and grow it. Please be on the lookout for future virtual gatherings and other ways to share ideas.
