Subject: Re: processing of ILL requests"In advance of any decision about a national document delivery service [which I think is a long time away]"Well, actually SHINE (Scottish Health Information Network) - which recently celebrated its 30th birthday - operates a very successful national union list ILL scheme which is truly cross-sectoral, covering not just the NHS but also HE, government and the 3rd sector. We will shortly be launching a membership drive to FE and public libraries.Malcolm S. Dobson

Subject: Re: processing of ILL requestsAs a follow on from this question, there are a lot of regional library networks [Northern & Yorkshire; WISH; SWICE etc] whose catalogues are available to search over the internet. I would be very interested in knowing if any of the NHS regional networks, including HLN and London Links mentioned below, would consider an application for membership from another library OUTSIDE of their geographical area? With a fee charged?The BMA, RCS, PLCS and NULJ are nationally available and have subscription fees. Might a regional network [here in East Anglia we have our Eden network which covers 3 WDD areas libraries] income generate in a similar way?In advance of any decision about a national document delivery service [which I think is a long time away] maybe there's some mileage in discussing interim, between library networks, arrangements.What do others think?regardsHilary

Subject: Re: processing of ILL requests
Thank you to everyone who replied to my email about interlending networks. I have left the original email at the bottom of this one. To summarise the replies I received:
- A couple of people suggested PLCS for psychiatric/mental health journals. See http://www.londonlinks.ac.uk/dbtext/plcs.htm
- Kent, Surrey and Sussex HLN journals was suggested as a source that may be able to come to an arrangement with the London region. See http://stlis.thenhs.com/hln/ill/#
- The Royal College of Surgeons library has an institutional membership program. See http://www.rcseng.ac.uk/services/library/about/membership_html
- The BMA has an institutional membership program that offers photocopies at cheaper rates than the BL. See http://www.bma.org.uk/ap.nsf/Content/Hubaboutinstitutionalmembership
- NULJ, which is a national program with a subscription fee. http://wads.le.ac.uk/cc/library/clinical/nulj_homepage.htm
