Introduction

The Indiana State Library Resource Sharing Committee (ISLRSC), in conjunction with the Indiana Library and Historical Board (ILHB), has adapted the American Library Association’s Interlibrary Loan Code for use by the libraries of the State of Indiana.

As outlined in the ALA Code, “Libraries have an obligation to obtain material to meet the informational needs of users when local resources do not meet those needs. Interlibrary loan (ILL), a mechanism for obtaining material, is essential to the vitality of all libraries.” This code establishes principles that facilitate the borrowing and lending of interlibrary loan items in the State of Indiana.

Indiana libraries abide by the copyright laws of the United States, the policy on Confidentiality of Library Records adopted by ALA and related Indiana statutes (see Supplemental materials at the end of this document).
