ILLINET Online Users

UIC Students, Faculty and Staff should watch for changes in ILLINET Online (IO) this summer. In late 2001 the State Library resource-sharing consortium, ILCSO, chose a new system to replace the current ILLINET Online System. The UIC Libraries moved to this new system last December and ILCSO will be changing over this summer.

Beginning on June 19, 2002, IO requesting will be unavailable for more than a month as the 44 ILCSO libraries come up on the new system. An announcement will come from ILCSO when borrowing and lending through IO is once again possible.

You, however, WILL BE ABLE to request materials from the 44 ILCSO libraries through traditional interlibrary loan procedures during this time. Please note that materials requested in this way will take from two to four weeks to arrive.

If you currently have ILLINET Online materials checked out for which the due dates fall before or during August 2002, please contact the Richard J. Daley Circulation Desk (996-2724 or lib-desk@uic.edu) for an extension. During the ILCSO transition, we encourage you to keep IO materials through the month of August. Due dates are being adjusted accordingly and fines will be suspended for the duration.
