ILL/RS is an integral service provided by libraries to their users. In 
today's rapidly changing information landscape, ILL/RS services have 
become hubs through which myriad services and systems converge. In this 
workshop, we will examine best practices and strategies in providing ILL 
services, discuss practical innovations you can adopt to better serve 
different user populations, and explore the exciting new directions 
ILL/RS systems and services are heading in. Learn how to use ILL data 
effectively; evaluate ILL/RS partnerships and programs, and develop new 
services to connect local and distance populations to your library.

Instructor: Evan Simpson is the Head of Reference and Instruction for 
the Tisch Library at Tufts University, where he leads the development of 
research assistance services and instruction programs for a broad range 
of research communities in the School of Arts, Sciences, and 
Engineering. Evan is responsible for identifying and promoting emerging 
research and instruction technologies and for cultivating collaborative 
initiatives between reference and other library and non-library 
departments and programs throughout the University. Evan has long been 
involved in resource sharing services where he has direct experience 
managing interlibrary loan and document delivery units, developing new 
resource sharing services, and building partnerships with libraries and 
consortia. Evan is interested in the affect of digitization on research, 
instruction, and resource sharing; trends in scholarly communication; 
marketing and outreach for libraries; emerging technologies and their 
integration in instruction programs as well as discovery and delivery 
systems; and in Resource Sharing as a developing strategy for academic 
and public libraries; evandsimpson at gmail.com
