Recommendation
To integrate Alma with VDX we will implement a possible solution that integrates the Alma “supplier of last resort” configuration to VDX. This solution requires configuring a special WSILL partner within the Alma resource sharing system. This partner will send an email to a CDL-managed ILLiad VDX Email Adapter (IVEA), which will create a borrowing request in VDX. VDX will then send a lending request to WorldShare ILL to find an outside partner who can fill the request.
