Gil Express & Ill: Odd Couple Or Match Made In Heaven?, Ashley T. Hoffman, Kiara Bynum, Monica Mclaurin

For this project, we will analyze the methods employed by other schools in the USG system to improve the coordination of GIL Express and ILL services. We will present our findings as well as evaluate alternative solutions to streamline the process for both patrons and staff.
