“…Getting the documents out of those systems and on to the WWW requires additional software. As reported by Schnell, Doc Morph, Web-EDD, Prospero, and EDD (Yale University) are all iterations of software used to transform a document from a library-to-library transmission system and place the document on a server for access via the WWW (Schnell, 1999).…”

ABSTRACT. This article describes the investigation, pilot test, and results of implementing electronic document delivery in a paperless processing environment at The Ohio State University. The Prior Health Sciences Library Document Delivery Unit conducted a twelve-month pilot test from September 1999 to August 2000 to determine the best method for desktop document delivery and the paperless processing of requests. Participants completed a survey and provided insightful feedback on the request form and overall process. Special programming was required to implement desktop delivery and manage client requests. The result of desktop delivery was successful. The results of paperless processing were mixed. Future possibilities to complete the "paperless" environment are suggested.

Josep-Manuel Rodríguez-Gairín ResumenSe presenta la evolución en los últimos veinte años (1992-2012) de la automatización del préstamo interbibliotecario en las bibliotecas universitarias españolas. A partir de los distintos procesos que se llevan a cabo en este servicio -envío de peticiones, localización y recepción de documentos y gestión interna-, se identifica cada uno de los programas utilizados y se pone de manifiesto como han evolucionado cada uno de los procedimientos en paralelo a la propia tecnología. Palabras clavePréstamo interbibliotecario, Obtención de documentos, Automatización, Bibliotecas universitarias, España. Title: Twenty years of interlibrary lending and document supply automation in Spanish academic libraries (1992-2012) AbstractTrends over the past 20 years (1992-2012) of interlibrary lending and document supply (ILDS) automation in Spanish academic libraries are discussed. Taking into account the routines and procedures carried out by ILDS services -document identification, localization, document request, reception of borrowed items and user services or internal management-the article lists the software used in Spanish universities to handle these services, setting it into the context of the evolution of each process in parallel with software developments.

“…Ariel literature peaked at the turn of the millennium when the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Information Supply (now the Journal of Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery & Electronic Reserve) devoted an entire issue to experiences of institutions using the software (Ives, 2000). Around the same time, publications began to examine how Ariel functionality could be enhanced through the use of software such as Prospero (Schnell, 1999;Sayed, Murray, Wheeler, 2001;Weible, Robben, 2002) and DocMorph (Franke-Webb, 2001).…”

The authors examine, based on a survey of users, the electronic document delivery methods currently in place as well as changes in the recent past and future developments. Interlibrary loan and document delivery staff were surveyed from institutions across the United States in order to ascertain what document delivery mechanisms are currently in place, how they are being used, and why. Findings from this study should lead to an increased awareness of electronic delivery options in libraries across the country and elucidate the dynamics involved at individual sites. This, in turn, will assist librarians in making decisions, based not only on their individual circumstances, but on the experience and trends found across a broad sampling of institutions.
