Need help with ILL or OCLC's WorldCat Resource Sharing service?
Visit MLNC's Interlibrary Loan Resources for help!


OCLC WorldCat Resource Sharing Composed of more than 7,500 libraries, the WorldCat Resource Sharing network has at its core the comprehensive WorldCat database. WorldCat's tens of millions of records represent library-owned resources—both physical and digital—that cross all manner of subjects, languages, cultures and uniqueness. This service may also be used by libraries those who do not catalog on OCLC.

OCLC ILLiad OCLC ILLiad Resource Management software (OCLC ILLiad) automates routine interlibrary loan functions so you can provide superior service in a paper-free environment. Your staff manages all of your library's borrowing, lending, and document delivery through a single Windows-based interface.

Ariel MLNC is a regional distributor of Infotrieve's Ariel software, the document delivery system for users of the Internet.  Using the Ariel software, library staff can scan articles, photos and other documents; transfer the images electronically to other Ariel workstations; and convert them to PDF for easy delivery to patrons.

Clio Use Clio to manage your ILL transactions on the local level from the time a patron makes a request through the entire cycle, including loan, return, billing and payment. Clio has all the functions you need to manage your ILL operation including preparing and tracking customizable lending and borrowing notices and archiving completed transactions for later statistical use. MLNC provides libraries with a 5% discount off the list price of Clio software. For pricing and ordering information, contact Deb Ehrstein at ext. 816.

Relais Relais International provides a suite of highly sophisticated systems and software to automate and streamline operations in traditional ILL and document delivery services as well as supporting on-campus delivery and distance-education programs.
