Dear Jodi,

Thank you for getting in touch. Is the journal in question PNAS? If so,
I will refer you to someone who handles permissions for PNAS.

Subject: Journal article question

Good morning. Our interlibrary loan folks received a request for a
journal article. We follow the guidelines for interlibrary loan requests
completely, so we send articles to requestors all the time. However,
this particular request is for a single journal article for an issue in
a particular volume.
Unfortunately, that particular article is the ONLY article in that
issue. We have never run into an issue that only contained one article.
My first instinct was to send it and treat it just like we would any
other article.
Since it is the only article in that issue, we started wondering if we
were "allowed" to do that. So, our question is: are we allowed to send a
copy of this article to the requestor? Any advice or guidance provided
would be appreciated. Thanks!
