[ILL-L] proposed study of AV fill rates

[Sue Kaler]

Hello all,
 
For various reasons, I have become very interested lately in fill rates for 
interlibrary borrowing of AV materials.  I am not aware of any published 
study that breaks out fill rates by material types.  If anyone is aware of 
such, please contact me.  If not, would anyone like to join me in putting 
together some data on the state of affairs at present? 

 I borrow for a group of libraries in Massachusetts (mostly publics.)  I use 
Clio and have figured out a way with the help of the amazing Judd of pulling 
up reports of items requested, items received and items cancelled by 
material type using the MARC general material designations such as Visual 
Materials, Sound Recordings, etc.  That data would be what I could 
contribute, but I'd like to get a bigger sample from other folks.  Please 
contact me off list.  Thanks.
