Patron ILL requests are managed in the User services > Interlibrary loan requests menu. This page lists the requests received with a pick-up location corresponding to the librarian's current library. It is possible to create a request for a patron from this view, and the patron can create them himself from the public interface.
Requests are managed manually using the Status and Loan Status fields, as explained below.
For the time being, the management of ILL notifications and library requests is not yet implemented.
