 The Internet Archive fulfills lots of #ILL requests each day (and on holidays/weekends). Each one takes a person to do it, so we spread it out to staff around the world. I love that the highest years are the 1990's... Keeping our cultural memory alive! 15 comments
@brewsterkahle I didn’t realize the Internet Archive even *did* inter-library loans — very cool! I’ve got a few things I’ve been meaning to research and will likely be making use of this… Thanks for the post. @brewsterkahle “lives of great ones all remind us, we can make our lives sublime./ And departing leave behind us, footprints in the sands of time. / Footprints that perhaps another, sailing over life’s solemn main, a ship wrecked and forlorn sailor, seeing may take heart again” — Longfellow (I think) @brewsterkahle I've just watched a workshop and immediately setup the Custom Group/Custom holdings path to IAILL in our ILLiad. 👍 @brewsterkahle I have an interest in a niche bit of history - the bicycle culture in the San Francisco, CA, USA region 1860 - 1940 -and archive.org has been a most helpful resource!
