What's NILDE?
NILDE (Network for Inter-Library Document Exchange) is a web-based software for inter-library document delivery. Over time, a network of libraries has formed (NILDE Community) willing to share their bibliographic resources in a spirit of collaboration, in order to provide their users with a quality document retrieval service using NILDE software.
Within the NILDE community, libraries exchange documents almost always free of charge, in compliance with copyright law and licensing agreements with publishers.
To date, the NILDE Network includes about 900 libraries belonging to different countries, institutions and disciplines, with almost 70,000 users, including researchers, teachers, students, professionals and ordinary citizens.
The flagship website for the NILDE community of libraries and users is: https://nildeworld.bo.cnr.it/
