More on new DOCLINE
Having been mandated to retire its legacy mainframe system, NLM used it as an opportunity to design an entirely new interface for routing requests. The new DOCLINE web site combines REQUESTS (borrowing and lending) with DOCUSER's directory and routing table profiles and SERHOLD's heath-related serial holdings. It also provides access to participants' quarterly statistics and Loansome Doc administrative functions as well as links to PubMed and LocatorPlus, making the new DOCLINE a one-stop resource for health-related interlibrary loan needs.
