Budget constraints challenge collection development in
unprecedented ways. Collection development has increasingly become
a cooperative effort among libraries in geographic proximity. When
their own library doesn't have certain books or journals, users
turn to interlibrary loan to obtain the resources they need.
However, many library science degree programs don't cover
interlibrary loan. Resource Sharing Today is a practical guide to
resource sharing starting with the library across town and ending
with libraries on the other side of the globe. Chapters cover
everything from the ALA's interlibrary loan form to successful
innovations such as Virginia Tech's ILLiad to New York's IDS
(Information Delivery Service). Appendices include regional, state,
national, and international ILL codes, ALA and IFLA forms, open
access agreements, and purchase on demand plans.
