1. WHAT IS QUICKDOC & WHO USES IT?
The QuickDOC program is designed to aid hospital librarians with administrative tasks associated
with the borrowing and lending of journals between libraries through the DOCLINE® interlibrary loan system.
DOCLINE® is the National Library of Medicine's automated interlibrary loan system.
The system maintains a database of libraries within the National Network of Libraries of Medicine® as well as
their journal holdings in order to efficiently route loan requests between borrowers
and lenders.
3. WHY DO I NEED QUICKDOC?
QuickDOC is a valuable tool because it integrates with the DOCLINE® system to maintain records of all transactions.
This makes it easy for library administrators to generate reports on all of their borrowing and lending over any given
time period.
