Here is the new edition of the standard directory Library Journal
""...recommended to all libraries that regularly borrow library
materials."" and that Booklist complimented for its ""copious
indexing that facilities access..."" Now in its seventh edition,
this invaluable standard reference for interlibrary loan has been
expanded to include libraries outside North America and fee-based
document delivery services. Approximately 1700 academic, public,
and special libraries in the U.S., Canada, Europe, Israel,
Australia, and other countries are listed. Over 200 foreign
libraries are represented (up from 45 in the sixth edition)
including libraries from more than fifty countries ranging from
Argentina to Zimbabwe. Information about each library includes
interlibrary loan address and telephone number; acceptable methods
of transmission; turnaround time; media exchanges; charges of all
kinds, lending and depository status of government documents,
billing procedures; Docline, and Ariel and Internet addresses. New
data in this edition includes the URL for the library's
interlibrary loan policy if it is available as well as geographic
regions to which foreign libraries will loan. Completely updated
and expanded lists indexes libraries that loan government
documents, periodicals, and microfilms; libraries that loan to
foreign countries; and libraries that loan technical reports,
computer software or newspapers. Interlibrary Loan Policies
Directory now also offers numerous new indexes to facilitate
access. These include: libraries that loan doctoral dissertations,
master's theses, maps, or genealogical materials; as well as
indexes listing E-mail and Docline addresses, URLs for Online
Public Access Catalogs (OPAC), participants in OCLC's Interlibrary
Loan Fee Management (IFM) program, and libraries outside North
America that loan internationally. ILL is designed to help
librarians efficiently consider options for accessing resource
materials, based on criteria important to users - turn-around time,
cost, length of borrowing period, etc. This directory is a
worthwhile investment for libraries which either borrow or lend,
since it provides an up-to-date representative ILL service policies
for libraries to consider as they revise their own policies as well
as a ready-reference tool for day-to-day work. ""Copious indexing
facilitates access to the more than 1,700 entries."" Booklist
""Libraries of all sizes should find this directory helpful to
library staff as a supplement to online information about ILL
policies."" American Reference Books Annual
