As library shelving and physical collections continue to vanish, electronic resource collections continue to grow. To keep up with evolution, we need to expand our Interlibrary Loan (ILL) services to meet the needs of our library patrons.

Designed for MLS candidates, MLS graduates, librarians, library administrators, and paraprofessionals, this course teaches you everything you need to know about ILL systems, including nuts, regulations, and copyright issues surrounding ILL. You’ll also explore outlines of potential internal and external policies and procedures that your library can put into place and examine modern day challenges related to electronic resources.
