The library is pleased to present ILLiad, a new user-focused
Interlibrary Library Loan system. ILLiad was originally developed by librarians
at Virginia Tech to streamline and improve interlibrary loan services by applying
web-based technologies.
Users of ILLiad at Genesee will be able to place and track
requests for materials from other libraries (nationwide), receive article
requests electronically, and receive most requests much faster
than with traditional interlibrary loan systems. Students and
staff at Campus Centers will also be able to use this online system to
place requests for Genesee library materials.
With the implementation of ILLiad, the Alfred C. O'Connell
Library has joined the award-winning
IDS Project, a group of New York State libraries dedicated to resource
sharing and increased access to library materials.
