11/03/08 - Changes to the Libraries Australia Document Delivery Payments Service
The Libraries Australia Document Delivery Payments Service (LADDPS) manages the financial transactions between the supplying and requesting library by;
- making a single payment to your library for all items supplied
- issuing your library with a single invoice for all items requested
- emailing you a detailed transaction report for all items supplied and requested during the bi-monthly billing period
You will notice changes when you receive your next LADDPS Transaction Report (that is the January-February 2008 billing cycle). Report changes include:
- reconciliation to your tax invoice and payment
- a list of all reciprocal arrangements your library has within LADD, as the supplying and requesting library
- incorporating all report types into a single workbook
Further information regarding the LADDPS as well as a sneak peak at the style of the new report.
If you are not currently receiving LADDPS reports and would like to, please contact Libraries Australia Administration via email with the following details:
Organisation name
Contact name and phone number
