Additional location tracking to prevent human error. When a lender mistakenly ships something without updating it in ILLIAD, it can often be missed on the borrowing side as well leading to confusion when additional items arrive and libraries not receiving compensation. This is a human error but if there was a software side way to help prevent this it would help high volume users.

Unfilled request process not canceling the OCLC request Check for any conditionals in the history. If a condition is denied from the last lender, the request will automatically update to unfilled. If the user then immediately creates a new OCLC request from the open request, the process to remove the existing OCLC request will not run. The work-around is to close the request after responding to the condition and open the request from the Awaiting Unfilled Processing queue. This behavior is similar to the Awaiting Request Processing queue where the options to create an OCLC request will only appear if the request is opened from the queue.

Want to print Borrowing Notes specifically on a lending request Site would like a way to print the Note or a way to select what notes to print. The problem is that the Borrowing Notes show up first, but other notes show up after that. They want the Borrowing notes to show up on the Print template, but because the Borrowing Notes are not the last note, it does not show up on the Pint template. It would also nice to just have a field called Borrowing Notes and print that.

ILLiad / Aeon integration - request type would transfer from ILLiad to Aeon automatically The request type (Loan or Photoduplication) should transfer automatically from ILLiad to Aeon. ILL staff should not have to select that again when transferring the request to Aeon.

ILLiad / Aeon integration - reduce clicks by streamlining processes It would be ideal if when Aeon staff cancel an Aeon request received from ILL / ILLiad the request would also auto-cancel in ILLIad as well, so the ILL staff would not have to cancel once more.

Would like a way to automate the resend request process Currently, staff have to send an email to the lending library to request a resend. ILLiad doesn't necessarily know that the item has been resent and the original document conflicts with the new version. Also, the message itself for a resend is not in ILLiad or Odyssey or any other system.

Support for multiple renewal requests by web user The end user needs to be able to request a renewal more than once. Also, once that renewal has been approved the next time, it should go back to Awaiting Renewal OK Processing, regardless that it has already been at that status once before.

Strip carriage returns out of email subject before sending If an email subject has a field that creates carriage returns (like title), it's failing to send. The carriage returns could be stripped out before sending to avoid errors.

Improve normalization of journal titles for copyright searching and counting against rule of five Some titles have carriage returns, trailing spaces, and abbreviations that make the rule of five not match. Also, journals change title throughout their run. Should the copyright query count another field like ISSN, OCLC Number, or some other field?

Allow lending staff to set a document type which would modify the due date For videos etc. the due date is different than standard loans. When the request comes in from OCLC or any other system, we don't yet know what format it is necessarily. But when staff choose that format in the document type field, ILLiad could change the due date to a new value based on a customization key.

Have OCLC search default to serials *and* internet resources by default for journals Many electronic journals are classified as internet resources versus a serial, so both need to be selected in a search

Allow ILLiad to receive a renewal request once it has been requested in ILS, so that ILLiad can request the renewal from the lending library If items from other libraries are checked out to users in the ILS, when that user places a renewal request, ILLiad needs to know about it so it can ask the lending library for a renewal.

Allow borrowing articles to deliver immediately via trusted sender and auto bill the default amount to the user If every user is always charged $x for an article, there is no reason for staff to mediate those. The billing could be added and the article delivered to the user.
