[ILL-L] list of unborrowable journals

[Koveleskie, Judith]

I'm not sure there is any good way to track this.  We added our e-holdings automatically, but there doesn't seem to be any way to create a local holdings record for them or to deflect individually.  Most of our titles cannot be lent and even with the ones that we can lend, the years are limited.  I often get requests for older issues, when perhaps we have only the last five years.  Also, there are some things we cannot lend because they are part of a database, but people with individual subscriptions can lend.  So I'm not sure that you could always say that a particular title could never be borrowed.  That's why I always request from the print version first because in the case of one of the titles you listed, Harvard Business Review, that could be lent.

Does any one keep a list of titles that cannot be borrowed, only bought electronically? I have always had to find out the hard way.

Harvard business online - only avail by website purchase.

IDrugs - all licenses prohibit any kind of ILL

Harvard business review.

ISHS Acta Horticulturae - only avail for online purchase

For IDrugs, I had to find out by sending out requests and having them come back with telegraphic OCLC, until I decided to call one of the libraries and find out.
