The email list is regularly used for interlibrary loan requests though these should always be checked for availability against the Encore21 database before posting.

When submitting postings to the iaml-uk-irl email list please observe list etiquette:

  • This is a discussion list, and it is not dedicated to Inter-Library Loan requests; any such requests must always begin with ILL in the subject line to help those not engaged with loans to filter them out.
  • ILL requests should be posted to the list only after they have been checked against the Encore21 database without success.
  • Up to six ILL requests may be made in any single email message. Satisfied requests should always be reported back to the list using the same subject line to save the time of others who might still be trying to help.
  • Posting of commercial advertisements to the list is not permitted. If in any doubt please ask the list owner.
  • Attachments – e.g. pictures, documents, spreadsheets, etc. – are automatically stripped out since they can be used to spread viruses and other undesirable content.
  • Reuse of email addresses from this list for sending unsolicited email is strictly forbidden.
