About the Document Delivery and Resource Sharing Section
The Section on Document Delivery and Resource Sharing (Formerly the Document Delivery and Interlending Section) is the forum in IFLA for libraries and associations concerned with making information in all formats available throughout the world through a variety of resource sharing and document supply techniques.
The Section's primary objective is to extend and improve document delivery and interlending both nationally and internationally through the use of new technologies and increased cooperation among libraries and document suppliers.
The Section monitors developments and provides information to its membership through a section website, twice-yearly newsletter, programs at IFLA conferences, support of document delivery workshops, and cooperative projects with international organizations.
Ask an Expert
Do you have a question about document delivery and/or interlending? Now you can ask an expert! Send your question to the Information Coordinator for the Section on Document Delivery and Resource Sharing, who will either reply directly or refer your question to an appropriate person for response.
While the service is intended particularly for questions related to IFLA documents and services, questions related to international document delivery and interlending will also be welcome.
