Nebraska Resource Sharing Participation Program and
Lender Compensation
To encourage and support the sharing of
materials between Nebraska libraries, the Nebraska Library Commission
provides quarterly compensation to Nebraska libraries lending materials to
other Nebraska libraries through the OCLC Interlibrary Loan system. The
amount per item varies by quarter depending on available funds.
To participate in the program, please complete the
Nebraska Resource Sharing
Participation Program Agreement Form.
Payments are made in one of two ways for public libraries, private college
libraries and special libraries:
- Direct payment: made electronically to an account for
the library, or in the case of a public library to the city, if an
ACH/Direct Deposit agreement has been made with the State Treasurer's
office.
Payments to Nebraska Entities: For those libraries whose payments are deposited into a city account rather
than a library account, this document can be given to officials as a clarification
of why funds must be
expended for library purposes.
- Database account deposit: these funds are
held by the Nebraska Library Commission and may be used by the library to
pay for products and
services invoiced by the Library Commission. Products and services may
include databases, OverDrive subscriptions, CatExpress subscriptions and
training sessions.
To choose or change a method of payment, please
complete the
Lender Compensation Payment Instruction
form.
Payments for State funded libraries must be
made as a direct payment by creating an
Inter-Agency Billing Transaction (IBT) on NIS and sending the invoice to the
Nebraska Library Commission for approval and posting.
