  2. ILLs @ Derby What comes to mind when thinking about ILLs……? • Sources of supply? • The decline in interlending activity? • Problems with Systems? SED? All these are relevant and pertinent but……..

  3. A certain excitement……… • Of reader anticipation • Of the need for speed and efficiency • To acknowledge that the most obscure of titles are wanted…..usually …yesterday!! • So, what do we do at Derby…………

  4. Interlending structure • Three sites • Five subsidiary BL accounts • Site specialists with ‘local’ autonomy • Precise transport procedures between sites • ‘The DX’ transport system………..

  5. Our requesters We don’t have a large research base…. Some colourful requests originate from our Forensics staff and students………

  6. Funding • ILLs Service funded from the Library Budget • ‘Free’ to staff and researchers • Post grads’ receive the first 20 included • Undergrads’, Yr 2 and above, pay £2.00 • No ‘charge back’ to Faculties

  7. Activity…… • Derby is not alone in showing a steady decline in ILL activity • Conversely, ILL activity is broadening • Secure Electronic Delivery • Broader searching • Talis Source • OCLC Resource Sharing Inter Lending Activity at the British Library

  8. Numbers……. 2007 - 2008 • 671 Monograph requests • 1007 Serials requests …..of which • 429 were delivered SED • ‘Systems’ average of 7 days to supply • Books usually in 3 days • SED often within 24 hours

  9. Derby supplies...... • LIEM • UnityUK, particularly within region • NULJ Nursing Union List of Journals • Direct • Recent arrangement with De Ferrers School to support the delivery of the International Baccalaureate

  10. OCLC Resource Sharing • World wide locations • Many ‘free of charge’ • Cost effective • Swift service • Satisfies unlikely requests……

  11. SED…Secure Electronic Delivery • Introduced to Staff and researchers June 2005 • Immediately impressive, even to new users • Not without problems: Adobe Digital Editions • Offered as a ‘beta’ test to students, off campus • Requesters must ‘register’ their intent for SED • Service will be expanded to include students ‘on campus’

  12. Online ILL requesting…… • An ongoing project now nearing completion • Online request form prepared • Strong and robust response to the requirements of the e-signature regulations • Beta Test Introduction in Jan 08 for staff • Credit function in Alto 4.3 • Online requesting and SED on open access PCs scheduled September 2009
