    Don’t Miss the Boat! Navigating the Interlibrary Loan Code for the United States
    (2015-06-05) Miller, Brian; Baich, Tina
    The ALA RUSA STARS Codes, Guidelines, and Technical Standards Committee maintains and promotes the Interlibrary Loan Code for the United States and its Explanatory Supplement. As members of this group, we wish to encourage awareness and application of the Code in the interlibrary loan community. Recent postings on national listservs have demonstrated that resource sharing practitioners sometimes do not know or misunderstand what is in the Code and its Supplement. Our session will explore some myths and realities about the current documents and what they regulate. We will also include an update on our STARS committee’s ILL Code revision process and share an overview of the feedback we received in our recent national survey which solicited suggestions from the resource sharing community on what changes to the Code and Supplement are desired.
