N1 - The right time for the University of Illinois to start a new Own Not Loan program was January 2008. The librarian who had initiated the original Own Not Loan pilot program at Illinois now held the position of head of acquisitions and had previous experience in both ILL and circulation. An additional factor was the availability of funding in the form of an internal National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Challenge Grant, which provided the financial opportunity to begin a new program. The internal grant application requested $10,500; a total of $6,500 was awarded for the implementation of the new pilot program to do the following:
The authors would like to thank Lynn Wiley, Head of Acquisitions and Associate Professor of Library Administration, for writing the internal NEH Challenge Grant and for spearheading the work from the acquisitions department of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Library. The plan to use the failed I-Share requests to generate lists for requesting the Own Not Loan materials was entirely her idea and one that is still in practice at the time of this publication.

N2 - The interlibrary loan (ILL) department at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign implemented an Own Not Loan program in 2002. The program failed due to slow turnaround time and was suspended until a better workflow could be designed. In 2008, librarians reassessed the program when the following resources became available: an acquisitions librarian who had previously worked in ILL, funding through an internal grant, and a graduate assistant trained in ILL processes. The major change between the original program and the second one was the source of the requests. In 2002, the requests were generated through the ILL department, which-unlike many other ILL operations-processes only those difficult requests that cannot be handled through I-Share, the statewide consortial borrowing program. In 2008, however, requests were generated from those requests that I-Share had been unable to fill. The article discusses the differences between the 2002 and the 2008 programs and explains how the changes made the current program successful.
