Australian Interlibrary Resource Sharing (ILRS) Code

The ILRS Code has been endorsed by the Australia Library Peak bodies including Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA), National and State Libraries Australia (NSLA), the Council of Australian University Librarians (CAUL) and the National Library of Australia.
 
The Interlibrary Resource Sharing (ILRS) Code (together with the Best Practice Guidelines) is designed to support a multi-faceted approach to resource sharing based on reciprocality, cooperation and fairness between libraries, respect for the moral and intellectual rights of creators and publishers and compliance with legal and contractual obligations.
 
This version of the Code was adopted in December 2019 and came into effect 1 April 2020. It replaces the "Australian Interlibrary Resource Sharing (ILRS) Code" (2013).
 
The Code has been updated to show the recommended fees (rounded up/down to the nearest 10 cents) for July 2022 to June 2023. It came into effect July 1 2022.
