The day after: RSCVD lesson on resource sharing

The initiative “Resource Sharing in the Times of COVID-19” (RSCVD) was launched by the IFLA DDRS Committee to help libraries to fulfill users’ requests and information needs during the pandemic emergency. We describe our RSCVD experience of Italian volunteering librarians who provided and go on to provide materials through secure systems from libraries of the NILDE Network for the worldwide librarians. We present difficulties, results and open questions regarding document delivery and resource sharing exchanges. We can highlight benefits (international networking) and critical points (unsuccessful research of electronic documents). Finally we propose suggestions to better retrieve papers and books.
