[ILL-L] borrowing requests from other libraries

[April Younglove]

Many places use a software product to help them do these tasks.  For instance, my library uses Clio.  Another popular program is ILLiad.

Subject: [ILL-L] borrowing requests from other libraries
 
Hi folks, I am reorganizing the ILL department and I would like
suggestions on how other departments handle their incoming requests from
other libraries. Right now, in order to track material requested by
other libraries we create a post card with their name and address and
then attach a bar code and check out our material to them. It is then
tracked by our library system (Voyager). The problem is we end up with
hundreds of these cards and a lot of the time we have only used them
once. We also don't have control of the overdue notices. I know there is
a better way - any suggestions?
