摘要
Although the true costs of inter-library loans (ILL) are unknown, universities increasingly rely on them to provide better library services at lower costs. Through a case study, we show how to perform a time-driven-activity-based costing analysis of ILL and provide evidence of the. benefits of such an analysis.
