New Jersey Interlibrary Loan Survey

The New Jersey State Library, with the support of Interlibrary Loan Focus Group members, is collecting information on usage of the statewide interlibrary loan program JerseyCat and other resource sharing solutions. We ask that you take a moment to complete this brief survey to help us develop a better picture of resource sharing among New Jersey libraries.

We are seeking responses from representatives of all types of libraries, whether or not the library is an active participant in JerseyCat. Responses will preferably be submitted by staff members directly responsible for or engaged with interlibrary loan (here defined as borrowing and lending materials outside of your library collection, system or consortium).

Thank you for taking the time to provide your answers. Please direct any questions to Project Specialist Michael Maziekien at mmaziekien@njstatelib.org.
