[ILL-L] Docline keep 5 years?

[Document Delivery]

I've read that ILL records should be kept for three years plus the
current year, electronic saves room.

Good Morning My ILLer's

 

Hope all had a great weekend.   I need some feedback on why we must keep
the Docline request for 5 years.  For the life of me I do not remember.
We have lost our space, and do not have the room to keep them.  Since I
do keep the scan copies in a file, I do not see why we must keep the
hard copies.  The only ones, I would keep would be the ILL that I borrow
like books, AV's, DVD, etc due to situations like MIA, misplaced,
shelved and not checked in properly or  just plain lost in the mail. I
would keep a year's worth.  Could you all tell me what you are doing,
and also please refresh my memory as to why we must keep them so far
back?
