Interlending and document supply developments in South Korea Available to Purchase

This paper aims to introduce the present situation of the interlibrary loan and document supply services among libraries and information centers in South Korea. The Korean ILL network has relied for a long time on two major structures: cooperation among college and university libraries and cooperation among regional research libraries. The library cooperation networks in each sector are encouraging more resource sharing methods such as cooperative acquisition, union cataloguing and consortia for E‐journal services. If the union catalogue systems of all library sectors were combined as a single national union catalogue, they could share over 100,000,000 holdings in South Korea.
