In July 2003, the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM), Southeastern/Atlantic (SE/A) Regional Medical Library (RML) offered select member hospital libraries the opportunity to participate in a pilot electronic document delivery project. Awards of up to $2,000 were available for NN/LM SE/A DOCLINE-active hospital libraries. Funding supported the purchase of software and scanner imaging equipment. The smallest of libraries, and those without collections, needed receiving software only. After several rounds of Electronic Document Delivery (EDD) funding, statistics collected indicated a pattern of increased electronic borrowing and lending and shortened turn-around times for requested material. A by-product of the project was the development of an electronic-only, free sharing group in the Region, named ESEA (Electronic Southeastern/Atlantic Region), and adoption of clearly delineated electronic document delivery etiquette. Electronic document delivery rejuvenation in small medical libraries contributed to marked improvement in users' perceptions of hospital libraries as places of rapid, electronic information service, and of the librarians who provide these services.
