Helen started a discussion in December about funding of ILL, but according to
the archive there were only a couple of responses to this.
Since we are currently looking into our funding it would be useful to know how
others go about it, so I'm hoping to kickstart the discussion again.
At UEA, we fund our ILLs by topslicing an allocation from the Schools'
Acquisitions budget, based on size of school and past usage. This is a fairly
arbitrary arrangement (the money is in fact just one pot) and leads to some
schools overspending while others have a lot of money left at the end of the
year.
I would be very interested to hear what others do; please reply direct to me,
[log in to unmask] and I will summarise for the list if you would like me to.
