Need user documentation?

The WorldCat Resource Sharing Quick Reference provides basic information about resource sharing functions. If you want to use the power of FirstSearch to let your users initiate requests, see the OCLC FirstSearch/ILL Direct Request Link Quick Reference. If you want to let your users initiate requests via a system other than FirstSearch, see the ILL Direct Request Planning Guide for directions on how to do this.
