Document Delivery Services of the UT Libraries

 Interlibrary Services

Lending

Requests are received daily from other institutions through several sources: OCLC, DOCline, Kudzu, RAPID, Illiad, ALA forms, and ISO requests. The Lending staff processes these requests and looks up the corresponding call numbers and locations in the UT collections. Library Express then physically searches the materials and takes them to Digital Production Services for copying, updating, and scanning.

Over 4500 requests annually that are submitted to ILS are passed on to Library Express to fill locally.
