Faculty may request access for research assistants to ILLiad accounts

Western Washington University faculty members who are working with student research assistants may have their ILLiad accounts modified to accommodate student support. By working with the Western Libraries ILL and Document Delivery staff it is possible to establish student access to a faculty ILLiad account and not jeopardize access to more sensitive personal information.

Setting up research assistant access to a faculty ILLiad account (rather than asking the student to make requests via his or her own account) assures that faculty receive the level of service they are entitled to, requesting is not hampered by the undergraduate request limit, and that any accrued fines will not be posted to the student’s library record.

To arrange for research assistant access to a faculty ILLiad account, contact Frank Haulgren, Document Delivery and Collection Services manager, by email at frank.haulgren@wwu.edu or at (360) 650-7641.
