Make OCLC Local Holdings visible from ILLiad
When ordering items via OCLC from the Awaiting Request Processing queue, there are many times (especially with Internet Resource format type) where a list of symbols is showing, but no coverage information at all. It appears you can log into WorldShare's online interface directly and expose the holdings information there. Please make this info. visible in ILLiad so we don't have to leave the program or make faulty lender symbol strings. This is really not efficient and leads to wasted time.

I fully support this request. There is no way to see most ejournal holdings in ILLiad. As more and more libraries have only electronic holdings of journals it becomes more critical that we can see those holdings and make accurate and efficient requests. We shouldn't have to leave ILLiad to do that
