The A.R. Dykes
Library of the Health Sciences is waiving the costs of Interlibrary Loan fees
for all KUMC and KU Hospital faculty, staff and students as of July 1, 2015.
Based on employee and student survey comments, KUMC customers have expressed
dissatisfaction with the fees charged to them for interlibrary
loan.
Library director, Jameson Watkins and the Dykes library staff in Content and
Access have decided that instead of spending staff time billing KUMC and
hospital employees, staff will use that time to offer better services such as
exploring other models for providing immediate full text content to users.
Beginning July 1,
the library will absorb all costs charged by other libraries for interlibrary
loan services provided to KUMC campuses. For more information on interlibrary
loan services, please go here https://illiad.lib.ku.edu/kkp/logon.html or contact the
