Old requests from Library Interlibrary Loan account no longer visible from 29 January

5 January 2021

On 29 January, the way in which staff and students with a UvAnetID log into WorldCat Discovery (the national library catalogue) will change. After that date, the system will automatically create a new Interlibrary Loan (ILL) account for you the first time you submit a new request. Any old requests made from your previous ILL account will no longer be visible.

If you have any requests pending from or works currently on loan via your old account, the Interlibrary Loan (ILL) staff at the Library will process these in the usual way. You will, however, no longer be able to view the requests and loans associated with that previous account in your updated WorldCat Discovery profile. 

Need an overview of your old account?
If you would like an overview of the pending/current requests and works on loan associated with both your old and new account, or if you have questions regarding this matter, please contact iblburo1@uva.nl.

To learn more about the ILL and how you can borrow works from the catalogues of other libraries, please visit our special page on Interlibrary Loan.
