Customizing the ILL Request Form in FirstSearch

Did you know that you can customize the ILL Request Form your users see in FirstSearch? It is easy to choose which fields display in the ILL Request Form and specify if the fields will be required or modifiable by patrons. You can even change the field labels on the form to reflect the terminology used at your library. You can also include a customized note to users that will display on the form.

To customize the ILL form in the FirstSearch Admin Module:

• Click http://firstsearch.oclc.org/admin/.
• Enter your FirstSearch administrative authorization and password on the administrative module login screen.

You will be taken directly to the ILL Request area in your administrative module. If you would like to customize the ILL Request Form in FirstSearch, but do not have access to your library's FirstSearch administrative module, please forward this message to the person at your library who can make the changes.
