Now here is something to be thankful for! (bet you haven’t heard that recently, huh?)
Library staff are delighted to announce a new feature in the databases which will make submitting an interlibrary loan (ILL) request much simpler and much faster. Anyone who has submitted a request knows that the least pleasant part is having to manually type the citation information into the request form. Well, get ready to look for a new pet peeve, because now there’s a better way. Library staff have configured LinkSource to automatically bring the citation fields from the database into the request form, saving you all of that typing.

This may seem like a small tweak, but we’re hoping that in the long run it will save students a great deal of time and frustration. Be sure to email library@alliant.edu if you have questions or comments about this or any other Alliant library service.
