[ILL-L] Question about license agreements

[Sharon Bleau]

My guess is that the critical issue is the fact that we pay for access to online 
journals, but we don't actually own them.  It's a different matter when you 
scan an article from a print journal and provide it to someone through ILL.  
You have that right since you own the journal.
