Online Interlibrary Loan

What's the difference compared to "traditional" interlibrary loan?

• Interlibrary loan can be initiated from almost every library: Your library orders literature from another library that is not present locally. For this purpose, you have to go to the library.

• You can initiate online interlibrary loan wherever you are and whenever you have the time to do so - right from the computer screen.
