[ILL-L] ILL for courtesy borrowers

[Campbell, Heather]

On a slightly different tack- we offer an e-card that allows a user who
is not eligible for a Jacksonville Public Library card access to our
electronic resources (magazine and newspaper databases, encyclopedias,
our Special Collections, and downloadable audio) -but not the physical
holdings of our library.  More info at:
http://jpl.coj.net/lib/ecardappform.html

 

Somewhat similar to Arthur's case- we will have customers register for
an ILLiad account who have been barred on their regular library card
account.  If they're not eligible to use their card to check out books
or use library services, they're not eligible to use ILL.

We, too, welcome community users at our college library, but to the
public library for ILL.  A couple of them have been persistent, and it
turned out their ILL privileges at the public library had been
suspended, presumably for either not returning books or returning them
long overdue.


I hope this doesn't seem discourteous to them.  I usually supply a
printout of the WorldCat record of the book they want, which I hope will
make things slightly easier for the public library.

We are a community college and although we do have borrowing privileges
for community borrowers, they are limited to our collection.  Should
they need interlibrary loan, we refer them to their local public library
for that service.
