[ILL-L] 2000th AV lender

[Paul Drake]

After the February 2007 death of Lloyd Peterson, I assumed custodianship of the LVIS free AV list. It is posted on ShareILL and named Lloyd's list.

To maintain that list and revise our own AV custom holdings, I started researching the OCLC policy directory and emailing libraries to discover AV policies. I created an excel spreadsheet of any library that loans any AV format to any other libraries. This includes libraries that only loan microfilm, or only loan within that state or consortia.

Today the 2000 plateau was reached when I added the Pritzker Military Library in Illinois. I have some more in IL and OH and then I'll be complete. (???!!)  Free lenders without format restriction are added to Lloyd's list (almost 900 currently). I'll post the complete list (or a revised version somewhere.

There are currently 2388 libraries on the NO AV list. Some of these libraries don't have AV.
