[ILL-L] WorldCat Resource Sharing

[Chappell, Cyndi, JCL]

Hi Betty,

We're a public library looking into options that might be more cost effective, that would be more compatible with SIRSI, that would allow us to set up easy routing rules (like current year requests getting sent into a collections consideration queue, article requests sent to copyright clearance queue, etc.), easy management of billing/invoices, automatic upgrades (we're hosted with ILLiad, and it's a pain to upgrade because our IT folks have to be involved), and little limitation on number of staff authorized access to it.
  
Looking at the above wish list, does this sound like what you get with WorldCat?  What are the negatives you've found with it?

Thanks for your input!

Cyndi

Hello.  Does anyone use WorldCat for their ILL management system?  We're currently using ILLiad, but researching other options.  If you use WorldCat, I'd love to ask you some questions about it.

Thanks,
