DanBib/netpunkt: New usages of ILL standards and technologies Anders-Henrik Petersen & Rikke Lose Danish Bibliographical Centre (DBC) 7th Nordic NVBF-ILL-Conference

Short overview … DanBib bibliotek.dk For the Danish population Content: Danish national bibliography + holdings of Danish Libraries Loan requests are sent to the library used by the end-user User interface: simple and easy – for the general public For library professionals Content: as bibliotek.dk plus records from Library of Congress, BNB, ISSN etc. – for reuse and verification Loan requests: inter library loans (ILL) User interface for the professionals

A few facts Bibliotek.dk: Opened ,4 million loan request since opening In 2006: (8 months) DanBib: z39.50s://z3950.dbc.dk:210/danbib Opened million loan request in 2005 In 2006: (8 months)

Important components DanBib bibliotek.dk VIP BOB Database of library information Database of loan requests

DanBib ILL-system The DanBib ILL-system mediates ILL-transactions between 4 different types of local library systems z ILL - formatted plain WWW- BOB - formatted Responding libraryRequesting library

Locals holdings in DanBib - monographs

Local holdings in DanBib - periodicals

The technology behind …. The automated ILL in DanBib is based on: Danish profilation of the Z39.50-standard (’danZIG’) ILL-services supported: ordering (ILL- request) and and reply (ILL-answer) To come: exchange of material number, cancel- and renewal services XML!

<n:holdingsStructure xmlns:n=" xmlns:xsi=" xsi:schemaLocation=" XML-holdings, ILL-request and ILL- answer in XML-format <ill5:ILL-APDU xmlns:ill5=" xmlns:xsi=" xsi:schemaLocation=" DK DK <ill5:ILL-APDU xmlns:ill5=" xmlns:xsi=" xsi:schemaLocation=" DK DK <ill5:ILL-APDU xmlns:ill5=" xmlns:xsi=" xsi:schemaLocation=" DK DK

Automated end-user initiated ILL through bibliotek.dk In bibliotek.dk: Loan requests are sent to the library used by the end-user Not to the library that holds the item … The ILL-transaction is performed by the library staff – often from the BOB-database web And that could be automated!

Implementing automated end-user loan requests in bibliotek.dk (2006) the end user sends requests to her own library (as today – nothing changed!) The DanBib ILL-system checks: - does the library accept automated ILL? - are there any supplier-libraries? - which library delivers first? … and sends an ILL-request from the chosen library to the “first-deliver”-library … without any library staff involved …

Technical demands for the libraries For the borrowers (requesting libraries): any! For the lenders (responding libraries): must be able to display holdings in XML but they can receive ILL-requests ”as usual”: - automated or non-automated - through , BOB or Z39.50-ILL-request

Further plans: A switch to XML: all communication will exchange valid XML-documents ISO-ILL-services: SHIPPED, CANCEL, RENEW, OVERDUE Alternative(s) to z39.50: SRU-Webservices As a precondition for: More automation, more services, (a more) service orientated architecture Hear more tomorrow!
