Asks: \_\_\_ the circulation of ILL requested items.
Default: Disable

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Asks: \_\_\_ external sources for availability during the request process.

Description:
- This preference controls whether specific external resources will be searched
prior to a request being placed. The resources available are installed using
:ref:`plugins <plugin-system-label>`. These can be located on the Koha
plugins wiki page at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_plugins.
Currently there are plugins for EDS (Ebsco Discovery Service), Z39.50
and Unpaywall. When a patron
:ref:`submits an ILL request <your-interlibrary-loan-requests-label>`, the
item metadata in the form is used to search the external resource. The patron
can then click on the title links in the displayed results. If they find the
item they were requesting the request can be abandoned. If not, the patron
can continue with the request in the normal way.
