[ILL-L] "In Library Use Only" - do you conditional first?

[Thompson, Cynthia Marie]

We only accept a Library Use Only conditional when there are no other
lenders available if we think we might be able to get a circulating copy
from another library.  And we almost never lend library use only, when
we do it's because it is a material that is non-circulating here and the
borrowing library has contacted us to make special arrangements.

Hello All -

 

Just wondering what most ILL folks do on this topic.  If you're going to
lend for "in library use only" do you conditional first - or just send
with a "in library use only" instruction.

Are there a lot of libraries that do NOT accept 'in library use only'
loans?

 

Thanks all for your participation &

HAPPY THANKGIVING
