In the UK, about 80-90% of requests go via the British Library. They use a format called ARTTel (it's a plain text format, pretty basic). There is a call for some other formats though, mainly a generic type letter and also the BMA (British Medical Association). ISOILL never really kicked off and we don't really hear of any call for this. I think, ideally, something where you could plugin extra formats would be ideal so that they could be added to on a regional basis or as the need arose. I know Spain and Denmark have regional formats. Jonathan On 10/02/2010 10:17, Magnus Enger wrote:

The UK libraries make much use of the British Library Document Supply Service but also often interlend between institutions. Both of these are often required or highly desirable by UK libraries.
Just curious: what kind of protocol or other means of communication do they use for the interlending between institutions?
