Configure Rapid Library Name and Address Information to Import into ILLiad Properly
Currently Rapid library address information imports into ILLiad with only the library symbol and a generic name, (i.e. New: Main Library or New: Odyssey Sender). In order to produce statistics including those necessary for the ALA RUSA STARS Quadrennial International Interlibrary Loan survey, staff must manually edit every Rapid library address. This takes an inordinate amount of staff time. Please configure Rapid so that all of the address information including country import into the correct ILLiad fields.

If Rapid requests aren’t importing cleanly into ILLiad, it usually means the Rapid library symbol, name format, or address fields don’t match what ILLiad expects. To fix that, you need to update the Lending Library records inside ILLiad so they line up with the data Rapid sends.And if you're downloading mods from different platforms, it’s safer to browse with something like the https://xnxubdvpn-browser-apk.id secure vpn browser apk to avoid harmful links.

Correct and complete address information For Rapid libraries is important both in terms of day to day processing (library identification, receiving etc.) as well as the international resource sharing & licensing implications, as already cogently commented upon by others.

We are not ILLiad users, and work directly in Rapid rather than import requests there - but I would add here that being able to see on the request itself exactly where/who is filling it would be very helpful, since as you point out that info is vague beyond what is generally a library's OCLC code.
We also only use Rapid for copies, not physical book lend/borrow.

We especially need the library's country to come in accurately, both to comply with licenses for e-materials and in case we receive RapidR loan requests
