                                                            ILLiad Update

Thank you for a very successful first semester of using and testing ILLiad, our new online Inter-library loan system.  We have just completed database maintenance to officially "go live" with our new system and are now fully operational.

When you next log into ILLiad you will be brought to a page requesting that you update your personal information.  Please be certain to fill out the section related to your Status and Department to facilitate your future transactions.

                       ILLIAD - Interlibrary Loan Service

 

Gill Library is pleased to announce the launching of ILLiad, our new electronic Web-based Interlibrary Loan Service.  ILLiad enables faculty, staff and students to request items through interlibrary loan by using a Web-based electronic form that is compatible with every library resource.

 

How is ILLiad different than traditional ILL systems?

 

With ILLiad, it is easier and faster to submit interlibrary loan requests (articles, books, and videos).  Enter your name, address and other information as a first time user and the information will be automatically entered into the ILLiad system. No more hand writing individual forms for each ILL request.

  Patrons can search library catalogs and place an interlibrary loan request from any computer with Internet Access.

 

You will be notified via e-mail or phone when your item is available. Periodical requests can be electronically delivered via your computer (in PDF) or a hard copy can be picked up at Gill Library Circulation Desk. Books and videos can be picked up at their Branch Circulation Desk as well.

 

Want to know where your request is?  With ILLiad you can track the status of your request any time during the day or night, all at your fingertips. 

 

To utilize ILLiad, patrons must have a valid CNR Network Account user name and password.  Once a username and password have been established, patrons can begin using ILLiad at any computer on campus or via remote access. 

 

To access ILLiad you will see the link “Request this on Interlibrary Loan” in the databases or, if you already have a specific book or journal in mind,  go to Gill Library Homepage and select ILLiad from the “Services” section.  Then key in the necessary information on a blank electronic form and click on the “submit” button.

 

This exciting new development is planned to be launched on Monday, October 1^st.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact:  Kathleen S. Mannino, Interlibrary Loan Librarian, 914-654-5359, kmannino@cnr.edu .
