    Responses from all libraries are encouraged, regardless of whether you borrow or lend internationally. If you are a National Library, we would greatly appreciate your distribution of this survey to libraries within your country network.

    The number of questions will vary depending on which activities you currently perform, ranging from 10 to 40. It may take up to 25 minutes to complete. Several questions ask for statistics about your interlibrary loan activity. 

    You may preview the survey in order to gather this data in advance.

    On behalf of the RUSA STARS International Interlibrary Loan committee, thank you for your time and assistance!
