FAQ
DOCLINE -- Refer to Resource Libraries
Question: How does "Refer to Resource Libraries" work?
Answer:
- - The "Refer to Resource Libraries" check box offers the option to have a request routinely route to other resource libraries before it routes to NLM
-
- The system randomly selects up to 20 resource libraries that report holding the title and volume or year
- - The request will not be re-routed to any resource library in your routing table that has already rejected it
- - You can establish your preferred choice for this option in your Borrowing Preferences on the "DOCLINE Options" page of your institution's record
- - This default option may be changed on the Routing Instructions page of each individual request
