Sneek peek at ILLiad for ILL customers

Hi, everyone, I thought you might want to get an idea of what ILLiad will do for you. This PDF customer user's guide will give you a preview of ILLiad. It takes you through creating an account and some of the features available in ILLiad accounts.

WIU ILL may not put all of the features in this guide out to patrons such as account billing, but this will give you a good idea of how you can manage your photocopy and other requests not availabe on I-Share.

You will still have to login to your "My Account" for items requestws on I-Share.

Go to this PDF to see some of the features for you! Sneak Preview

ILLiad is sent for spring or summer roll-out.

ILLiad update & Web site

Hello, sorry it been a bit of time here folks.

The new improved ILL Web site is up and running. Let us know what you think.

ILLiad update

Date Set for Spring or Summer roll out! Your ILL staff is in training for the new software which will help us manage your WORLDCAT (non-I-Share) requests. ILLiad will allow you to check the status of photocopy and other loans not ordered via I-Share.

Watch out for the colorful poster, you never know what green monster lurks behind the window.

Updates and policy change

ILL has discontinued its 5 per day request limit policy.
You brought this concern to us in our spring survey (March 2006). We have heard you and the policy has been revoked effective immediately.

ILLIAD is coming....yes it is still on the way. Right now the ILL staff is waiting for training. The redesigned Web site is close to going into production. Happy Harvest!

Requests this week

Hello! As of today we have had 250 requests from WIU patrons and will probably see 350 total by Friday September 22nd. I am happy to report that the ILL staff has kept up the pace and presently has everything ordered to date. If there was a problem with your request you will receive the request back soon.

Last week we had 450 requests from WIU customers and had everything ordered by Thursday.

ILL, ILLiad, and Pirates

Hello, ILL users! This past week we have been busy processing 300 requests received on Monday, September 11, from you. I am happy to report we are going into the weekend with all requests on order.

Hang in there. ILLIAD is coming and you may see the first signs of it in December or later.

Did you know Tuesday, September 19, 2006 is International Talk like a pirate day? The ILL department will be celebrating the 19th with pirate decorations and perhaps a hearty 'arrgghh'. Stop by and see us- you don't know what you might see or hear! We promise not to make anyone walk the plank.
