Abstract

Google, WorldCat, and other online discovery tools have increased the likelihood that users will identify non-U.S. resources, but multiple catalog records and myriad open access repositories make it less likely that users will be able to locate them. ILL practitioners play a vital role by bridging the gap between identification and location yet many find the process of locating potential lenders of non-U.S. resources difficult. This presentation will describe online finding aids and open access repositories that can assist ILL practitioners in this process. Identifying appropriate lenders and utilizing open access resources speeds the process for end users and fosters goodwill among our international partners. The resources described in this presentation can help ILL practitioners overcome the simplest of barriers to international ILL, citation verification.
