- Description
- The Library of Congress Federal Library and Information Network (FEDLINK) intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for accounting services to pay invoices for federal libraries who borrow from libraries that charge for lending materials. Federal libraries that use this Interlibrary Loan (ILL) Payment Service will be participating in the FEDLINK cooperative program and will establish accounts with LC/FEDLINK to pay for the charges they incur. The ILL Payment Service vendor will pay the lending libraries' certified invoices and will then bill the borrowing library's LC/FEDLINK account for reimbursement for the amount paid to the lender and for a service fee. The vendor will provide the borrowing library with detailed reports and summaries of lender invoices paid. This service is designed for payments, not collections. The vendor is to pay institutions that photocopy, supply electronic documents, or lend materials from their collection to federal libraries; the vendor is not to collect from borrowers (individuals or institutions) fees that federal libraries themselves may charge when they photocopy, supply electronic documents or lend materials. The FEDLINK ILL fee payment service provides an efficient method for federal libraries to pay ILL fees that may be charged by lending institutions to cover the cost of photocopying or other interlibrary loan processing costs. The RFP # LCFDL14R7200 will be posted on or about July 16, 2014. Vendors are responsible for ensuring that all amendments to the solicitation are received and addressed prior to proposal submission. All proposals shall be submitted in accordance with the instruction provided in Section L of the RFP. All questions shall be submitted in writing and addressed to the Contract Specialist via email as specified. NO TELEPHONE CALLS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
