Abstract

Abstract Loan periods provided by lending institutions vary greatly from the traditional 30 days to a generous 120 days. This study attempts to determine if the length of interlibrary loan (ILL) loan periods have a positive or negative impact on the research process. By surveying faculty members and graduate students, we sought to know how they were using print materials obtained through ILL, if loan periods were long enough for their research needs, and what was their desired loan period. This paper reports the results of that study, along with an analysis of overdue and renewal request data, with the goal of informing local and national conversations about aligning loan policies with researcher needs.

到期日期和贷款期限:对教师和研究生研究的影响

贷款机构提供的贷款期限差别很大，从传统的30天到慷慨的120天。本研究试图确定馆际互借期限的长短对研究过程有正面或负面的影响。通过对教师和研究生的调查，我们试图了解他们如何使用通过伊利诺伊大学获得的印刷材料，如果他们的研究需要足够长的借阅期，以及他们希望的借阅期是多长。本文报告了该研究的结果，以及对逾期和续借请求数据的分析，目的是为地方和国家的对话提供信息，使贷款政策与研究人员的需求保持一致。

期刊介绍： The peer reviewed Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve is the only North American journal devoted to interlibrary loan, document delivery, and electronic reserve librarianship. While other journals in reference services and academic librarianship occasionally publish articles on interlibrary loan or electronic reserve, this unique journal publishes over half of all articles on these topics. These important articles are a mix of practice and theory. Retitled from the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Information Supply to reflect the expansion of its focus to include electronic reserve, the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve marks a clear direction to make the journal even more useful to all libraries.
