The Document Supply service comprises
the Interlibrary Loan service (ILL) and the Document
Delivery service (DD)
The
Interlibrary Loan Service (ILL)
When the Library user cannot find
some document or journal article in the KKUML, he
or she can inform the service Library staff to ask
for its photocopy from some other library in Thailand
or abroad. The user has to fill in the ILL request
form with the bibliographic details of the document
wanted, pay in advance and the Library staff will
adjust the service charge again when the document
or journal article arrives at KKUML. The service charge
depends on the charges of the library which KKUML
contacts with.
The time of delivery is around
2-3 weeks by mail. If the user is the Faculty teaching
staff and the document is in the Faculties of Medicine
in Chiang Mai and Songkhla, the KKUML can provide
the Scan-File Interlibrary Loan Service. This kind
of service has the delivery time of 24 hours to 2
days.
The
Document Delivery Service (DD)
If there is no document or
journal article wanted by the user in other libraries,
the KKUML can help the user find some other place
that can provide the material. The other sources such
as information centers, database companies, internet,
etc., may be choices. The user who wants the document
has to pay for the service charge the KKUML uses in
acquiring it. The time of delivery depends on the
type of service which the user chooses.
KKUML users can use e-form to check which library can provide them with the needed
document.
Starting from 26 April 2004,
another type of the Document Delivery service (DD)
is provided to the Faculty staff and graduate students
of KKU. At KKUML, the staff and graduate students
of the Faculty of Medicine can borrow books and audio-visulas
of the KKU Central Library. Users can send the request
via any of the following ways.
1. Fill in the e-form at the web site http://library.kku.ac.th
2. Fill in the DD form which can be printed from the
same web site as 1
and present it at the circulation desk.
3. Search the required item by WebOPAC and send the
request from
here.
Users can return books of any library at the circulation
desk. If the item
is overdue, users must pay the fine at the owner library.
