[ILL-L] ILL costs, 50 page limit

[Peterson, Kim A.]

We don't have that custom.
 
We have one patron who has been using the same physics and engineering
titles for years. They are outside of our scope for collections. We just
keep getting them for him through ILL.
 
What's the probelm with that? As long as he follows all ILL rules, I think
it's great. In fact, this particular patron is good for our statistics
becuase he is experienced and is meticulous in following rules. We try not
to borrow the book from the same institutions again and again.

How the custom of not ordering something for a patron more than twice.  I've
looked all through Hilyer and can't find anything that addresses a limit to
the number of times to borrow the same item for the patron.  My patron wants
a book for a third time that is not available for purchase nor is it
something we would buy for our collection.  This doesn't fall inside any of
our policies.

Speaking of ILL costs, does anyone know where the 50 page "limit" for copies
originated? Maybe I read too fast but I have not been able to find it in
copyright law, policy, or ALA guidelines.
