7. Is there any area of the topic that you felt was not covered in sufficient depth?
__1__ YES __8__ NO
- Look at more vendors. Invite someone from Innovation/InnReach and other vendors whose specialty is ILL – perhaps even someone to show behind-the-scenes customization manager, etc. for ILLiad (perhaps a systems person).
8. Was there anything that was not covered that you would have wanted to be included?
__2__ YES ___7_ NO
- Systems information (for the more technologically advanced people).
- More ILL platforms
- It was nice having someone from SVLS here. It might have been interesting to encourage more PLP members to have a discussion about the future of ILL in our new consortia. Maybe for the future…
9. General comments:
- Thank you!
- This was excellent & very informative for individual libraries – I wonder how we might work together as a consortium with this information – agenda topic for future ILL Committee meeting?
- A great overview, but clearly more time would be needed to cover in greater detail. What a shame that so many left before 5:00 pm – we missed the opportunity to do a wrap up.
- Difficult to get into NPS but great facility for workshop.
- It would have been interesting for participants to have a discussion afterwards about impressions, possible future action, questions…
- Marvelous – superb speakers and great company!
10. Suggestions for future MOBAC workshops:
- More on resource sharing—perhaps with the greater (PLP) region.
- It was nice having someone from SVLS here. It might have been interesting to encourage more PLP members to have a discussion about the future of ILL in our new consortia. Maybe for the future…
