Is your library a member of the DOCLINE library group FREESHARE? If so, watch your email for an important renewal request.
DOCLINE is an interlibrary loan routing system provided by the National Library of Medicine. FREESHARE is a DOCLINE Library Group. Library Groups allow DOCLINE libraries to lend and borrow using an agreed upon criteria for the group. Libraries in FREESHARE are committed to lending to each other at no cost. Learn more about DOCLINE and FREESHARE on NNLM.gov.
This month, we will send an email to the contact email address for each FREESHARE member library. To keep FREESHARE routing efficient, we are asking each member library to renew or cancel their FREESHARE membership by Friday, February 28, 2025.
Renewing is required to continue to participate in FREESHARE. Member libraries that do not respond by February 28, 2025 will be removed from FREESHARE. If your library is removed from FREESHARE, this will not impact your ability to access and use DOCLINE.
FREESHARE is managed by our colleagues in NNLM Region 7. Contact Region 7 with questions about FREESHARE: nnlm-region7@umassmed.edu.
All other questions about DOCLINE from libraries in Region 5 can be directed to Region 5’s DOCLINE support: docline@uw.edu.
