Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to identify the arguments for the survival of interlibrary lending (ILL) in an open access environment. Design/methodology/approach – Viewpoint – a brief narrative. Findings – That ILL will survive! Originality/value – Useful in being one of the few (only?) articles to counter the widespread assumption ‘that everything is free on the web’, thus leading to the demise of ILL.
