University of Hartford (HRM) provides free copies with no page limit--I
know we request lengthy articles at times, so it seems only fair that we
provide them, too (although I have to admit I cringe when I see a 50+
page request cross my path in mid-October and my scanning pile is almost
as tall as I am!)

	The discussion of page limits reminds me of an unrelated
question I've been
	meaning to ask.
	
	 
	
	LVIS is wonderful, but some of our more voracious patrons
request long
	articles.  LVIS provides up to 30 pages free, but LVIS libraries
can charge
	for longer copies-and I have no trouble with that.  But it means
that I have
	to check the policies directory to see what libraries don't have
a limit to
	how many pages they'll copy for free, and of course many
libraries don't
	include that information in their policies directory.
	
	 
	
	Does anyone have a list of those wonderful libraries that never
charge for
	copies, or that provide free copies up to 50 pages (or
whatever)?   If so,
	I'd appreciate a copy.  
	
	 
	
	GLG never charges for copies, and we'll normally copy up to 100
pages.
	("Normally" means unless it's an exceptionally busy time, or our
photocopier
	is dead-though in those cases we'd conditional.)  
	
	 
	
	Many thanks to the libraries that have been so generous with our
outrageous
	demands (such as the time a patron demanded a bunch of articles
from law
	journals, mostly 80 pages or more, on ILL-luckily most of them
turned out to
	be on Lexis-Nexis).
