The survey summarizes the results of a survey conducted by the NILDE Internationalization Working Group regarding international interlibrary loan (ILL) practices among NILDE member libraries in Italy and other libraries in Europe and Spain. Over 400 libraries responded to the survey. The results showed that the majority of international ILL requests were between libraries in European countries, especially within Italy and Spain. Respondents indicated barriers to international ILL included costs of returning physical items and copyright restrictions on digital materials. There was overall support for expanding free resource sharing between libraries.
The document summarizes the results of a 2015 survey of Ontario residents about their use, opinions, and perceptions of public libraries. Key findings include that 31% of residents had not used a public library in the past year, with the most common reasons being that they get information from other sources or lack of interest. While in-person library visits have remained steady, online access via libraries' websites has increased. Residents see the public library as conveniently located and a welcoming place, but engagement in activities at libraries has declined slightly compared to 2010.
The document discusses measuring and evaluating library resources and services at BI Norwegian School of Management. It outlines key metrics like website usage statistics, database searches and downloads, guidance services provided, and user surveys. User surveys can provide qualitative feedback on satisfaction levels and the usefulness of resources but have limitations, so multiple metrics are needed. If the library closed, students would miss services like purchasing and organizing resources, training, and the expertise of librarians. The library aims to promote its value through attractive offerings, easy access to resources, high quality service, ongoing assessment, new services, and cooperation.
The document discusses research conducted by the Federation of Ontario Public Libraries (FOPL) on public libraries. It provides background on FOPL's mission to advocate for Ontario public libraries. Several key points are made about the role and value of public libraries, including that they play a critical role in communities' social, educational, cultural and economic success. The document also outlines FOPL's strategies for using statistics and research to influence stakeholders and position public libraries positively. These strategies include participating in task forces on library statistics, hosting symposiums, publishing analyses of usage data, and conducting regular public opinion polls.

The Caltech Library made several changes to improve resource sharing and fulfillment for its users. It canceled over 600 journal subscriptions and moved to an on-demand access model for articles. It also removed fees for interlibrary loan requests and document delivery from its own holdings. Additionally, it introduced a Rush article service for expedited delivery within an average of 22 minutes. These changes increased the Library's reliance on resource sharing through interlibrary loan borrowing and lending. While increasing the turnaround time for article requests, the changes also provided more flexibility in the Library's budget.

This survey examined international interlibrary loan (ILL) practices among NILDE libraries in Italy and Spain as well as other European libraries. 401 libraries responded to the survey, with the majority (69%) being university libraries. The survey found that international lending requests were higher than borrowing, with most requests (over 70%) occurring between libraries in Europe and North and South America. Payment by IFLA vouchers was most common. Respondents expressed a willingness for more free resource sharing cooperation but noted barriers like shipping costs and copyright restrictions. The results were similar to other international ILL surveys, but with a lower overall volume of international requests.

This document discusses resource sharing among art libraries in the United States and models for international resource sharing. It provides background on the Thomas J. Watson Library at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Getty Research Library in Los Angeles, outlining their histories, collections, and roles in national and international interlibrary loan. The document notes that art libraries have unique users and materials, and that resource sharing is facilitated through OCLC and the SHARES consortium, which allows for efficient borrowing and lending among members, including preferential treatment for sharing between art institutions.
This document describes an integrated interlibrary loan and document delivery system between libraries in Italy and France. The Italian National Library Service (SBN) allows over 6,100 libraries in Italy to share cataloging and engage in resource sharing through a common online catalog and interlibrary loan system called ILL-SBN. ILL-SBN is interoperable with other library systems that use international ISO ILL standards. The document outlines examples of how specific Italian and French university libraries are able to request and fulfill interlibrary loans and document deliveries between their integrated library management systems using the ILL-SBN interface. Benefits of the integrated system include easier tracking of requests, faster processing times, and improved statistics about international resource sharing

CALIS was established in 1998 and has over 1500 member libraries, while CASHL was established in 2003 and has over 800 member libraries. Both operate on a three-tier structure with national, regional, and local centers. They provide interlibrary loan and document delivery services to their members. The document also discusses quality control measures like service standards and assessments. Challenges facing the consortia include limited funding, uneven development between eastern and western libraries, and competition between the consortia.

The Federation of Ontario Public Libraries (FOPL) recently released new data and research reports on Ontario public libraries:
[1] A report analyzing key Ontario public library statistics from 2001-2013 such as circulation, program attendance, expenditures, and digital materials holdings.
[2] A public opinion poll of Ontarians conducted in 2015 examining library usage patterns, perceptions of value, and interest in new services. Most opinions of libraries remain positive but some traditional services are declining among younger groups.
[3] A study of library branding in Ontario finding most libraries have websites but fewer use social media actively. Adoption of new technologies varies significantly among library systems.
UCL & IoE Libraries - Research Data Management - 22/10/14Caroline Lloyd
This document summarizes initiatives between the libraries of UCL and IOE including exchanges of staff and expertise on topics like research data management, open access, and user satisfaction. It also outlines workshops between the two libraries on research data management, big data, and setting three action points. The workshops discuss challenges and existing services for researchers and libraries regarding research data and big data, and how libraries can be involved with stakeholders.
1. The document discusses the value and impact of public libraries in Ontario and the work done by FOPL to measure and demonstrate this.
2. FOPL has implemented statistical measurement strategies across Ontario to prove the value of libraries and now tracks numbers longitudinally.
3. Surveys show libraries are the most used cultural institution in Ontario, with 73% of residents using libraries compared to 32-55% for other activities.
Stephen Abram gave a presentation about trends in public libraries. He discussed tools like the BRIDGE Toolkit that help assess technology's impact in libraries. Ontario public libraries have seen increases in circulation, programs, attendance, and visits over the last decade, though budgets have grown only slightly. New services like makerspaces and 3D printing are popular among younger users. Most users still visit in person but increasingly also use libraries' online resources.
Ontarians visit their public libraries more than any other cultural, recreational, or commercial activity. Public libraries in Ontario average 198,630 visits per day - more daily visits than all major sports teams combined and more than foreign tourists visiting all of Canada. With over 1,157 branches serving 99.34% of Ontario's population, public libraries are truly the most widely used and accessible community hubs across the province.
The document summarizes research conducted by MarketProbe Canada for the Federation of Ontario Public Libraries on public library usage in Ontario. Key findings from the 2015 survey include:
- Household library usage may be slipping slightly, though reported library card ownership is steady.
- The top reasons for not using libraries are getting information from other sources and lack of interest.
- In-person library visits have remained constant while online access via websites and mobile devices has increased.
- Bookstores still receive more visits than libraries, especially online.
- Activities engaged in during in-person library visits have declined slightly, except for using the library's wireless network.
The document provides an overview of recent activities by the Federation of Ontario Public Libraries (FOPL). FOPL advocates for public libraries in Ontario and provides services focused on advocacy, marketing, research, and consortia purchasing. Recent activities include advocacy training webinars, research on branding and social media use by Ontario libraries, and planning for a summit on the future of libraries. FOPL is also working to develop standardized impact metrics and measurements to help libraries communicate their value in areas like early literacy, economic impact, and return on investment.

The FOPL Statistics Project aims to help Ontario's public libraries better define their value and impact. It has led to improved data collection and reporting on key library metrics and studies on topics like early literacy, economic impact, and public opinion. This work has helped libraries strengthen their advocacy and positioning by providing evidence of their contributions in areas like education, employment, and community support. The project also identified gaps in libraries' skills and relationships that it has worked to address through initiatives developing staff capacity, building new partnerships, and modernizing marketing.
The document discusses emerging trends in libraries and how libraries must adapt. It notes that libraries need to focus on services over collections, partner with other organizations, and support new forms of content and learning. Libraries must experiment with new ideas and be open to change to remain relevant as user needs and expectations change in the digital age.
Ontario's public libraries provide significant value and return on investment to communities. Studies show that for every dollar invested in public libraries, they return an average of $5.41 in economic impact. Public libraries help support job seekers, small businesses, and low-income Ontarians' access to resources. They also help promote literacy and life-long learning through resources like books, e-books, programs, and online databases. Public libraries are adapting to changes in technology and community needs by providing services like makerspaces, WiFi access, and digital resources.

This document discusses the importance of measuring the impact and value of public libraries through data and metrics. It provides an overview of several impact studies that have been conducted in Ontario. The key lessons are that libraries need to improve how they communicate their value through data-driven stories and visuals to advocate for more funding and support. Standardized core metrics and tools are needed to help libraries easily demonstrate their economic and social impacts to decision-makers. The goal is to transform how libraries are perceived and funded through strategic measurement and communication of their value.

Presentazione di Silvana Mangiaracina e Alessandro Tugnoli al X Convegno Nazionale sul Document Delivery e la cooperazione interbibliotecaria "Biblioteche virtuali per utenti reali".
La filosofia di sviluppo del software NILDE è fondata sulla collaborazione, l’ascolto delle necessità espresse dagli utilizzatori e l’interoperabilità coi servizi e con i sistemi gestionali in uso nelle biblioteche. NILDE è oggi un sistema che, grazie all’impiego di tecnologie e protocolli di comunicazione standard, integra nel flusso di lavoro del Document Delivery (DD) l’interrogazione dei cataloghi nazionali, il collegamento con le banche dati bibliografiche, la verifica dei diritti d’uso delle risorse elettroniche sottoscritte, l’autenticazione degli utenti presso l’istituzione di appartenenza. La possibilità di integrare NILDE con gli ILS (Information Library Systems), per evitare la duplicazione nella gestione delle operazioni di DD, è un obiettivo non ancora del tutto raggiunto.
Nella presentazione odierna viene mostrato il lavoro svolto per l’integrazione con i sistemi Aleph e ALMA di Ex Libris in collaborazione con alcune istituzioni che usano detti sistemi e gli sviluppatori del software. Viene illustrato lo stato di avanzamento del progetto: la complessità di tutti gli elementi in gioco, gli obiettivi raggiunti e le criticità riscontrate che hanno messo in luce problematiche da risolvere nel prossimo futuro.
Vengono inoltre presentate le linee di sviluppo futuro del software NILDE

In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.

17. Comments and suggestions
the most tell us about ILL difficulties, ILL delivery and
procedures, catalogue holdings visibility, copyright and
DD clauses, systems interoperability:
My library cannot implement an international ILL service because
of insufficient staff and organization”
Delivery and ILL receptions time is conditioned by post and custom
office”
Respondents ask:
Electronic IFLA vouchers - Simplify the transit from customs (US,
but also Switzerland) - Allowing different payment options -
Publishers agreements clauses allowing document delivery
17
Results
18. Comments negative perceptions
o Not significant progress in resource sharing of returnable items:
✔ visible but undeliverable
✔ fear of loss
o limited e-lending (i.e. e-books licensing restrictions)
Comments positive perceptions
o increasing exchanges of non returnable items (articles)
o successful experiences
o innovative solutions proposed:
✔ e-lending solutions software or publisher agreements
✔ Local consortia or cooperation networks of libraries
18
Conclusions
19. Conclusions 1
o NILDE widely disseminated in ITALY
77% of respondents are NILDE members
o Availability of free cooperation (88% yes, 12% no)
o Needs to extend interlibrary cooperation
Higher number of international ILL transactions between neighboring
geographic countries (mainly ITALY, SPAIN, then other EU countries)
o International lending and borrowing common obstacles:
✔ returnables payment, shipping costs
✔ copyright concern for non-returnables
19
Conclusions
20. Conclusions 2
Suggestions about interlibrary cooperation and resource
sharing:
✔ free service for non-returnables document (scanned
and digitized documents have no shipping costs )
✔ collaborative collection development to fight lack of
funds and financial crisis
✔ simplify payment method (adoption of electronic IFLA
vouchers …)
20
Conclusions
21. Similarities with other international surveys
(ALA-RUSA-STARS surveys) and case studies
• Countries of ILL exchanges: The majority of international
borrowing and lending countries are in North America and in
Europe.
• Materials difficult to obtain: older and rare, thesis and local
dissertations, e-books.
• Barriers/obstacles: shipping costs, uncertainty about licensing
and e-lending
• Payment method: IFLA vouchers
21
Conclusions
22. Differences with other international surveys
(ALA-RUSA-STARS surveys) and case studies
• Lower volume of international ILL requests:
The most respondents have fewer than 20 international ILL requests
per year borrowing and lending returnables and non-returnables
(other surveys fewer than 100)
• ILL Request processing system:
NILDE (other surveys OCLC)
22
Conclusions
23. Resource Sharing is not only
about "papers" but also about "people"

Editor's Notes
Ralph W. Emerson said “All the great speakers were bad at the first”. I am Giovanna Colombo of Insubria University Science Library and NILDE Committee and internationalization working group.
I’m honoured to be here and I hope to be not such a bad speaker for you because this is my first presentation.
Nilde is the largest italian network and software for interlibrary document exchange. The NILDE web application was initially developed by Bologna Research Library of Italian National Research Council at the beginning of 2000.Nilde library community counts almost one thousand members: mainly accademic (76%) libraries Italian university, higher education and research libraries but also medical and public libraries. Academic libraries REBIUN (software and Network - Red de las Biblioteca Universitarias espanolas) and CSIC (Consejo Seperior de Investig. Cientificas).
NILDE members share a cooperative model based on same vision and rules and free of charge cooperation. Foreign members are from Spain Switzerland, Luxembourg, Sweden, Croatian and GreeceFree of charge cooperation common rules: membership cost is 300 euro per year, but there is free association for libraries that ask less than 25 documents per year
Nilde multilingual software user interface supports Italian, English, Spanish, Greek and French languages.
Higher volume pf exchanges beetween Italy and Spain libraries because of the particular relation with Sapnish REBIUN libraries
NILDE application programming interface makes NILDE software open to communicate to any other ILL system and fully integrated with the ALPE database (e-journals license archive).
In the last 5 years there was an increase in exchanged ILL documents and last year NILDE processed two hundred thousand documents.
Since the beginning two millions.
Special relatinoship were established with Spain libraries of REBIUN network
We must overcome (surpass, overtake) the concept of ILL.
INTERLIBRARY LOAN was born in Berkeley university almost 2 centuries ago. There is a shif and we need to rethink ILL and use a wider term RESOURCE SHARINGNew technologies have a large impact in libraries services, new patron expectations and new vision of the library as a place ask RETHINKING roles and space and rethinking resource sharing. In Litsey book RESOURCE SHARING anytime anywhere HOW ILL became Resource sharing
NILDE Internal statistics say NILDE grows but how? NILDE Committee decide to conduct an international ILL exchange survey
Before 2002: handbook of Virginia Boucher, writing of Gilmer, Chang and Jackson After 2002: studies concerning cost of libraries Leon Cress
Now 2013 Marshall Breeding report about system and automation and rethinking resource sharing 2014 Posner
Need to understand more in addition to internal statistics
ILL Survey PURPOSE: investigate current resource sharing practices and interlibrary loan procedures and policies (i.e. international ILL methods, payment, items requested) not only in NILDE network but also in extra NILDE libraries in European-Mediterranean context.
With the aims to collect feedback and useful results for PROMOTING NILDE internationalization and EXPANDING services and international cooperation.
We take a look and compared previous anglo-american international ALA-RUSA-STARS 2007, 2011, 2015 ILL surveys (Atkins, Baich, Munson) and case studies presented by Frederiksen et al. (2012) and Litsey (2017) discover what is common and what is different
The NILDE survey target were all NILDE libraries of nilde-forni mailing list italian and foreign, including spanish REBIUN network librariesOther italian libraries not associated with NILDE (AIB, Gidif, SiDocumenta network) and finally European libraries , international contacts and library national associations (i.e. France, Hungary, Portugal).
We tested different software but finally the web survey weas created in Limesurvey an on line open source application made available and hosted by spanish university of Cantabria
all NILDE libraries, including spanish REBIUN network libraries and other not italian: survey was sent through the nilde-forni mailing list. Then Italian libraries not associated with NILDE (AIB, Gidif, SiDocumenta network), the spanish libraries (GTIBIB and BIB-MED) and finally European, international contacts and library national associations (i.e. France, Hungary, Portugal).
There is usually a low participation in survey. Percentage of respondents stands at 15-20%. In web-survey less 11%
We have had also EMPTY STRING for NOT answered questions and NULL VALUE for skipped and filtered questions
WHY NOT tell about NILDE associated 73% of respondents?
Most respondents have fewer than 20 requests per year borrowing and lending
First causes are document lost or unavailable, second copyright and licensing concern
Librarians attitude agrees with free cooperation. Different question is library governance attitude.Libraries and librarians are education and knoweledge promoters not inequality develpers
270 My library cannot implement an international ILL service because of insufficient staff and organization
360 Delivery and ILL receptions time is conditioned by post and custom office390 The main difficulty is related to the use of the non-English language catalogue (mainly German)
444 The library I'm working in is very little but we would be really happy to improve with a service of free ILL exchange with foreign libraries!
260 Electronic IFLA vouchers
325 Simplify the transit from customs (US, but also Switzerland)
341 Improving accessibility and search in foreign catalogues
477 Allowing different payment options
553 National and international management systems interoperable with catalogues, free reciprocal supply agreements between academic institutions
620 Publishers agreements clauses allowing document delivery

Consortia or local networks as NILDE (cfr. Litsey 2017) are the alternative between the PAY-PER-VIEW scenario and the GLOBAL DIGITAL LIBRARY scenario (cfr. Frederiksen et al. 2012, Baker 2009).
