[ILL-L] non-AV lenders--custom holdings group still necessary?

[Peterson, Kim A.]

Paul,

I'm not sure how I'd use a data file of AV non-lenders in an efficient way.

Wouldn't a file of AV lenders be more useful for custom holdings set up, that is, assuming one is able to cut and paste the list into a custom holdings group. I have to confess that I only make changes to our custom holdings group every couple of years and I do it symbol by symbol, so I'm still unsure how cutting and pasting would work.

Unfortunately too many libraries don't use defelectives.


In my efforts to develop an AV lender list, I compiled a list of 2543 OCLC
libraries that don't loan any AV.

This is based on policy directory statements, deflections, and responses
to emails.


I'm not sure how to sure it. It is excel format.

I have it on the drop.io file sharing, but whenever I've tried to post
drop.io links on the listserv, they never get posted.
