Session Time: 1:00- 2:00 PM
Interlibrary Loan departments continue to address closing the gaps in services, access, and technology. Cooperation and collaboration remain the hallmark of successful ILL departments. Sharing networks will continue to expand as collections and user demands grow. Through discussion and collaborative problem solving, attendees can share and/or assist others with their own departments "closing the gap” initiatives.
The best network the affiliated TAMUS libraries are a member of, is itself. By fostering initiatives through collaborative organization of all the TAMUS libraries, libraries could potentially foster stronger, more efficient, borrowing and lending practices to the benefit of all. In doing so, we can place more information into the hands of TAMUS students, faculty, and staff. It is our hope to facilitate discussion towards ‘closing the gap’ of TAMUS cooperation.

Speaker Bio(s):
Gregg Griffith manages the Interlibrary Loan department for TAMU-CC and has a foundation in history and archival science from the University of North Texas. Being new to his position, he seeks to increase communication between Interlibrary loan programs to share knowledge and provide a platform to ask questions that other departments may have about ILL and to bridge gaps that may exist in ILL and library programs. Overall, he is committed to promoting interest in a library’s resources and services and ensuring equitable access to information.
Carissa Piñón works as a Library Information Specialist and is in school for her MS Biology degree at TAMU-CC and is interested in how User and Research Systems can adjust their workflows to promote efficiency and increase utilization of resources for students. As a Hispanic and Minority- Serving Institution they aim to improve user access so that all students are aware of what the university and the Library has to offer so that the users that need the programs most can use them.
