Each of the previous conferences have attracted almost 200 delegates from 40 different countries. Co-operation with other players has always been crucial to effective interlibrary loan and document supply. Traditional partners in resource sharing have always been other libraries, and more recently, commercial document suppliers.   Increasingly, however, the boundaries between traditional interlibrary loan and commercial electronic access are becoming less defined, and the work of the ILL department brings it into contact with a range of other players: publishers, of course, but also rights organisations, library consortia, and developers of technical systems and services. In other areas, the services offered by the ILL department may overlap with those offered by archives, book distributors or repository libraries. As well as providing an update on emerging ILL trends and challenges and taking a look at current practice, this conference aims to look beyond traditional document suppliers to include services offered by other resource providers. Theme: Providing access through co-operation The Programme Committee invites papers from all those engaged in the field of  interlibrary loan, document supply or related activities. Possible topics may include: Publisher licences & general co-operation with publishers ILL provision via licensed access to electronic journals Managing authors' rights and related copyright issues Consortial resource sharing Reference linking Balancing ILL services from print and electronic sources Links with archives and repository libraries Book distributors  and redistribution agents Accessing documents published in developing countries Narrowing the information divide Standards and guidelines Statistics gathering - what is collected, to what purpose Performance measurement Unmediated document delivery Challenges to accessing material from specific countries This list is not exhaustive and papers received on other related subjects will be considered.
