Abstract

ABSTRACT On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) characterized the alarming spread and severity of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a pandemic. Responding to university directives, as well as professional association recommendations, many academic libraries not only suspended in-person services but also barred access to physical collections for interlibrary loan purposes. Such decisions had a significant impact on interlibrary loan (ILL) operations around the world. This paper describes how the University of Louisville’s Kornhauser Health Sciences Library (KHSL) not only maintained a continuity of ILL services but also expanded those services worldwide.

2020年3月11日，世界卫生组织(WHO)将2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的传播和严重程度定性为大流行。为了响应大学的指示和专业协会的建议，许多学术图书馆不仅暂停了面对面的服务，而且还禁止以馆际互借的目的访问实物馆藏。这些决定对世界各地的馆际互借业务产生了重大影响。本文描述了路易斯维尔大学的Kornhauser健康科学图书馆(KHSL)如何不仅保持了ILL服务的连续性，而且还将这些服务扩展到全球。
