Since late December, if you’ve ordered an article via ILLiad, the Library’s Interlibrary Loan service, you were in for a pleasant surprise…Electronic Delivery!
Articles are delivered as an PDF, which can then be saved or printed by the requestor. Posted articles are only available for 30 days and then are automatically deleted from the server.
The ILL staff is changing everyone’s preferred delivery method to electronic as they receive requests, but users can change their own by using the “Change User Information” link in the menu on the left hand side of the ILLiad Main Menu.
Remember not all materials may be delivered electronically: books, articles requiring a cash payment, materials with publisher restrictions.
The latest issue of the LibraryÔÇÖs Newsletter has been released. Archives of the newsletter are also available from 1998 to the present.
