The staff of the Interlibrary Loan Department in the University Libraries
at Virginia Tech is pleased to announce a new service provided by ILLiad,
Tech's ILL borrowing system.

As of July 4, 1997, ILLiad provides customers with the option to receive
selected photocopies electronically. This service is available for all
articles received by us through Ariel.

For borrowers who select the electronic delivery option, ILLiad converts
the incoming Ariel file to PDF format. ILLiad then makes the PDF file
available to the borrower,s account for viewing and/or downloading through
the customer's Web browser. The free Adobe Acrobat Reader can be used to
view the file.

Additional details are available on the Virginia Tech Interlibrary Loan
home page at
