Interlibrary Loans Just Got Better!

Interlibrary Loan just got better! Faster and less work for you.

We are happy to report that the library has purchased a new interlibrary loan system called "Relais" which will be implemented May 15, 2007 with the following improvements.

E-mail notification for all Interlibrary Loan requests!

•Library users will receive a UVic e-mail message when their interlibrary loan item is available for pick-up.
•This includes both books and photocopied articles.
•If your interlibrary loan request cannot be filled, you will also be notified.

Time saved!

•No more guessing when your items have arrived. You will receive immediate e-mail notification.
•No more re-requesting of cancelled items. The system will automatically send your request on to the next library.

Even more improvements coming!

•Stay tuned over the next few months.
