What’s an “ILL Yeti” anyway?

How the study came to be

Current Interlending Landscape
• Fragmented– Many systems in play
• Opaque– Statistics reported in gross numbers
• Evolving– New models and methods emerging

OCLC ILL statistics
FY13 FY12 FY11 FY10 FY09
ILL requests 8,858,368 9,192,189 9,587,429 10,248,942 10,279,215
Year on year 4% 4% 6% 0.29%
Between FY09 and FY13, OCLC ILL has seen a 14% reduction in total number of ILL requests.
Anecdotal evidence tells us that US libraries are seeing an ongoing increase in their borrowing.
OCLC wants to learn more about various trends in fulfillment.

The Elusive Big Picture
• Is resource sharing activity across the entire library community increasing, decreasing, or staying the same?
• Are there similarities among those libraries where activity is decreasing, and among those where it is increasing?
• What factors determine the selection of a model or method for each borrowing request?
![Page 9: OCLC Research Library Partnership Work-in-Progress Webinar Dennis Massie A Glimpse of the ILL Yeti: Stalking the Big, Big Picture of System-wide Collection](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649d705503460f94a5252e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

• Made up of 11 institutions with active, sophisticated, innovative resource sharing operations
• Some long-established members, some newer members
• Involved in all manner of consortial arrangements within and outside the group
• Would serve as an excellent illustration of current trends in the research library community

Institutions with multiple libraries and with complex ILL set-up’s might not have reported all activity to us.Both sets of data are self-reported, and possibly compiled by different people. Potential fiscal/calendar confusion Overall, study participants reported 97.9% of what was reported to ARL.

Next Steps
• Individual profiles for all 11 institutions• Look for cause and effect• Seek insight into strategic thinking• Break down returnables versus nonreturnables• Look at fill rates• Track reciprocal interactions via OCLC ILL• Report out generically• Report to BD cohort in detail• Repeat study with CIC (this time with POD)
