In this video, I discuss what is Patron-Initiated InterLoan and why Library Users should find out more about this extraordinary service as they go about their lives including career enhancement and continuing education. In Wisconsin, Users can ask to be a part of a program called Patron-Initiated Inter-Library Loan where they can place their own requests online without using traditional and time-consuming paperwork.
