Working group for the development of the ILL SBN interlibrary loan and document delivery system
In May 2009 ICCU established the Working Group for the development of the ILL SBN interlibrary loan and document delivery system with the following purposes:
- promoting the standard ISO ILL dialogue with other interlibrary loan and document delivery systems in Italy and abroad;
- exploring technical and innovative aspects related to interlibrary loan and document delivery services;
- tackling legal (local, national, and international agreements) and administrative (homogeneous service description, simplification of payment and shipment modalities, harmonization of tariffs and payments, indicators for service evaluation) issues needed for an efficient national service and that so far have only been tackled independently and in a piecemeal fashion within the various institutional levels (state, universities, local authorities).
The Group comprises the ICCU staff and representatives from universities, local bodies and the central administration.
