Hi, Thanks, for the good explanations. I was wondering about the Reciprocal column, that makes sense. Different for different folk....
I have updated IAF -Illinois (I think it worked ??). I think an email column would be worthwhile. We send more than half of our articles out by email now and it would be good to know how many people are using it or if anyone is really against it. We've only ever had one place ask us to use Ariel and I explained that in certain situations email is just easier and more economical. They were okay with that. Thanks for all your effort, Terry IAF - ILL - Governors State University Library t-rickh...@govst.edu From: arie-l-boun...@mailman2.u.washington.edu [mailto:arie-l-boun...@mailman2.u.washington.edu] On Behalf Of ILL_PSC ILL_PSC Sent: Tuesday, October 26, 2010 4:22 PM To: odysse...@iris.atlas-sys.com; karen.dink...@roanokeva.gov; Discussion of the Ariel Document Transmission System; il...@webjunction.org Subject: [ARIE-L] Custom Holdings Spreadsheet -- Meanings of the headings Meanings of the headings: Symbol = OCLC Symbol State/Country = location -- allows easy sorting for state and regional groupings Reciprocal = Does the library identify itself in the Policy Directory as "reciprocal"? The meaning of reciprocal is unclear. I put out a message to several listservs a couple of years ago asking what the listserv members thought it meant and found no consensus. Some libraries define reciprocal as "having a formal, written agreement" and will not extend reciprocity to anyone not in their formal groups. Some libraries define it as "if you say you're reciprocal, then I will treat you as reciprocal." There are no hard and fast rules. I specifically asked if it was improper for a free lender to designate themselves as reciprocal and to ask for reciprocity from libraries that charged. No one told me it was wrong, so I designate myself as reciprocal. BTW, I am open to reciprocal agreements and do have a couple of formal agreements, but reciprocal agreements are more to my advantage because I never charge anyone for anything. LVIS = Libraries Very Interested in Sharing = free copies (up to 30 pages) and free book loans to LVIS members. Does not include AV. For more information: http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/library/who_we_are/OCLC/lv is.html Charges = Charges, Free Copies, Free Loans, Free Copies and Loans, Blank = couldn't determine from Policy Directory If you want to add dollar amounts, that's up to you. I don't use charges very often, so it's not important to me unless I & my patron are desperately searching for lenders. Ariel = Delivers documents via Ariel Odyssey = Delivers documents via Odyssey Question: Should we add a new column (E-mail) for libraries that deliver documents via e-mail? Are there enough that it would be worth it? Notes & ? = This was a field for the students to put in problems or indicate special features Some notations in the Notes field: network processing center = I need to contact the individual library instead of the center non-supplier = at the time the student viewed the Policy Directory, your library was a non-supplier -- perhaps for vacation, holiday break, staffing, ? Please delete it if you are currently a supplier. You can put anything in the Notes field that you want to others to know about you. Example: Phasing out Ariel; 2011 = Odyssey only Date Updated = Date last change was made Initials/E-mail = Just a way to id who made changes -- just in case there's a question about who made a change and why Hope this helps, Linda Linda Celet Bane Interlibrary Loan (PWS/PWSA) Mary F.

What, exactly, is meant by "reciprocal"? We don't charge anyone for anything. But, if another institution requires a formal reciprocal agreement, then we have none. That's why my policy says 'no' but I've never been sure if that was correct. In the notes column, should there be anything about audiovisuals or not? I know that's on another list but I'm not sure if it should go here, too. I don't want to muddy the waters. TIA, Karen Karen Dinkins, M.L.S.

Some people have reported that they cannot see the headings in the spreadsheet. Some can only see the last two headings. I don't know why this has happened. I tested the link in Chrome, Firefox, and MSIE (6 & 7). They are there when I click on the link. They are blue.

Its been a couple of years since the Custom Holdings Spreadsheet was updated. Nick is now doing dino research at Marshall University and presenting papers and poster sessions, so this is no longer Linda and Nick's Spreadsheet. I doubt if he will ever return from the Dark Side (paleontology = not librarianship) to the Light (librarianship). Sigh! We miss him a lot! This summer and fall (May-October), I've had three work-study students (Jesica, John, and Chelsea) updating the spreadsheet based on your ILL Policy Directory entries. They've finally finished. I can't verify that it is 100% correct, they are only human and it is boring work. So....I am putting this out for people to take a look at and correct before I post it to the Share-ILL wiki and start to create new Custom Holdings Groups from it. Please check out your library's symbol and verify if the information is correct. If it isn't correct, please make it correct. This is a Google Doc. Anyone with the URL can view it and edit it. If you do make edits/additions/delections, please change the date in the Dated Updated column and please supply either your initials or e-mail address in the Person Modifying column.

I don't want to be responsible for people getting charged. Thanks for your help, Linda Linda Celet Bane Interlibrary Loan (PWS/PWSA) Mary F.
