I would be interested to know which libraries have set up some kind of
system for accepting ILL requests from users electronically or by email?
- Or, equally, if you have considered this and decided not to set up
such a system, that too would be useful to know.
If you have an electronic request form, is this generated by your
library management system, or is it one you have developed yourselves?
There was some discussion a while ago around the question of whether
electronic signatures can be accepted for copyright purposes. As far as
I can now discover on a quick search, we are still required to obtain
from the end-user a signed copyright declaration (on paper). Does anyone
know if this has changed? The BL still has declaration forms to download
from its website, and there doesn't appear to be an electronic
alternative.
Many thanks
