[ILL-L] Ten Commandments of ILL

I have always understood the restriction on new material to be a lender's prerogative.
I have read Virginia Boucher and am familiar with the National ILL code and haven't recognized anything in those sources indicating it is a borrower's obligation not to ask for new material.
Could someone enlighten me on the source of this protocol? We don't borrow new material as a matter of internal policy, but I would like to know if there is a protocol out there that makes it an expectation by other libraries that we not do so.

Whatever happened to "Thou Shalt not Request popular items newer than 6 monthes"? Often half of our requests are for items published within the past 6 Mo-1 year, best sellers and items that we have on order.

This is one that realllly bugs me. But I think I would also like to see: "Thou shalt not borrow from free libraries if you charge those same free libraries!

Thou shall not be an LVIS member unless you intend to LEND to all other LVIS
members, as well as borrow from them.
Thou shall not issue overdue notices without having done shelf checks that
include the materials waiting to be shelved in the circulation area.

After the latest round of posts on canceled requests, I thought about my
own pet peeves and that maybe we need a Ten Commandments of ILL;
Here are a few to get the ball rolling:
1. Thou shalt not ship AV's in anything but a box.
2. Thou shalt not update to shipped unless you have the item in hand (I
know, I know, some of you do this for a good reason, like branches ship out
ILL's directly, but maybe you could show them how to update, its really
easy.)
3. Thou shalt not reply "No-unspecified."
4. Thou shalt not reply "No-Noncirculating" for COPY requests.
5. Thou shalt not bill borowers for items lost in natural disasters.
OK - anymore out there? Happy Friday Y'all
