The Library plays a key role in providing
services that enhance national access to resources in Australian libraries. The
National Resource Sharing Working Group, following consultation with user
groups, has developed the InterLibrary Resource Sharing
Code. The code has defined new service standards for resource sharing. The
InterLibrary Resource Sharing Directory
has been redeveloped and significantly enhanced as a web-based directory. These
tools support the system of interlibrary lending in Australia.

The
ILRS Directory provides a directory
of Australian interlibrary loan and document delivery services and National
Union Catalogue symbols |
The National Bibliographic Database, offered
through the Kinetica service,
describes the books, journals and other items that are held in Australian
libraries and remains the key bibliographic support service within the
Australian library sector. The Library is considering strategies to improve the
utility of the National Bibliographic Database, including extending the
coverage of the database to contain a wider range of electronic information
resources.
