“…Part 1 of this study analysed trends in requests for pharmaceutical journals received at INIST (from 1992 to 2003), which brought out distinct patterns among different groups of journals within our corpus (Boukacem‐Zeghmouri et al , 2006). This was followed by an analysis of the relationship between document supply from our corpus and the number of citations counted within each group (Bador et al , 2007).…”

PurposeThe article aims to investigate the customers for the document supply of print serials.Design/methodology/approachThe study is based on data from INIST‐CNRS for document supply requests in pharmacology. Data were collected from 1998 to 2005 (10,000+ customer accounts with 4.6m orders).FindingsThe article provides information about the distribution of orders per customer type, about the geographical origin of customers, about the ordering trends among pharmaceutical customers and of pharmaceutical journals.Originality/valueThis is the last of three articles on a longitudinal study over 13 years on different aspects of the relationship between document supply and impact factor (citations) in pharmacology, a scientific domain with a high use of scientific information.

“…There is a widespread belief that rates of interlibrary loan are declining globally (e.g. Boukacem-Zeghmouri et al, 2006; Echeverria and Barredo, 2005; Missingham and Moreno, 2005; Pfleger, 2008; Sagnert, 2007). In the UK, data from UnityUK offers perhaps the clearest indication of current levels of provision, and recent trends.…”

This paper presents the results of a mixed methods study of interlending and resource sharing in UK public libraries, based on the results of a survey distributed to both senior library managers and interlending staff, and in-depth follow-up interviews with 20 respondents. We present an analysis of perspectives towards rates of interlending, the rationales and strategies for providing the service, the perceived value for money offered by various interlending schemes, the impact of the current digital environment, and views on the future of interlending in the UK. Our findings suggest that while interlending services are undoubtedly threatened by the drastic cuts to public library funding, and that demand for the service is more generally in decline, resource sharing is viewed by some as a potential means of mitigating the effects of increasingly limited acquisitions budgets, and ensuring the public library system continues to provide access to a wide range of resources for its users.

“…Document supply, particularly in the sciences, has declined worldwide since the early 2000s, (Boukacem‐Zeghmouri et al , 2006; Echeverria and Barredo, 2005; Missingham and Moreno, 2005; Pfleger, 2008; Sagnert, 2007) due to the widespread access to documents via the internet, Big Deals, i.e. “online aggregation of journals that publishers offer [to libraries] as a one price, one size fits all package” (Peters, 2001) and open access to electronic journals.…”

AbstractPurpose -The aim of this study is to investigate whether there are differences between users and non-users of ILDS and whether users of ILDS perceive certain factors as contributing to satisfactory ILDS outcomes. Design/methodology/approach -The study employed survey research in the form of a specially-compiled web questionnaire which was distributed by e-mail to a sample of faculty and doctoral students at two Israeli research institutions. Findings -One of the main findings was that an ILDS user is a senior, productive, humanities, faculty member -someone who frequently uses the library's services and resources, has a deep style of information-seeking. An additional finding was that many non-users of ILDS believed that all their research needs were met by the internet. The other main finding was that ILDS users who perceived the consulting of secondary information sources and receiving reference assistance prior to requesting ILDS as being beneficial, achieved satisfactory ILDS outcomes which exceeded their expectations and which were ultimately integrated into their research. Practical implications -The findings contribute to librarians' understanding of users and non-users of ILDS and may enable them to identify and encourage potential ILDS users and find ways to promote satisfactory ILDS outcomes. Future research could study whether users of ILDS actually produce better quality research than non-users. Originality/value -The research shows that ILDS users have a deep style of information-seeking and uncovers the reasons for non-use of ILDS. In addition, it confirms Stone's (1983) finding that secondary information sources promote patron satisfaction with ILDS outcomes.
