The Health Care Libraries Unit has been successful in securing funding from the National Knowledge Service to pilot automated document requesting. This will be a northwest lead pilot, with colleagues in the North East, Durham & Teesside, South Yorkshire, Trent and Midlands expressing an interest in being involved.
Library users have access to an expanding resource
* Core content, regional and local subscriptions
* Open URL linking to free content such as post embargoed journals (managed by Steve Glover and team)
* Open URL linking to local content such as free with print (courses being run by Steve Glover and team and everyone with local e-journals should attend)
* And now automated requesting for content not available electronically
The project and implementation plan needs to be worked on and I will keep you informed of developments.
