It's the season of holiday giving and ILL non supplier time.   When I 
train on resource sharing I always tell people that it's best practice 
to go "non supplier" if you're going to be gone for more than a day.  
Requests don't age like fine wine or cheese--they age more like a 
squashed orange under a 3-pound bag of apples. 

 If it's been awhile since you last changed your status or if you're new 
to resource sharing and need some help here's something I put together 
to guide you through the process.  It's pretty simple--the trick is now 
that we have 'deflection' you can do even more to make sure requests 
don't "age to next lender".

Happy holidays!
