In 1966, the Indiana University School of Medicine Library became part of a statewide teletype network. Biomedical personnel throughout Indiana may use the resources of the Library by requesting either specific books and articles or bibliographic searches through local public libraries which relay the requests to the School of Medicine Library. All transactions except reference questions receive twenty-four-hour service. The popularity of such a facility is indicated by the fact that 472 identified borrowers used it during the twenty-five months between its inception and December 31, 1968. Over half of the borrowers have used it repeatedly, and as many as 358 transactions have occurred in a single month. The largest group of borrowers consists of practicing physicians. It is felt that the enthusiastic response to the service justifies its continuation and expansion.
1966年，印第安纳大学医学院图书馆成为全州电传网络的一部分。印第安纳州各地的生物医学人员可以通过向当地公共图书馆请求特定书籍和文章或书目检索来使用该图书馆的资源，当地公共图书馆会将请求转发给医学院图书馆。除参考咨询问题外，所有业务均提供24小时服务。1968年12月31日该设施成立后的25个月内，有472名经确认的借阅者使用过它，这一事实表明了该设施的受欢迎程度。超过一半的借阅者多次使用过它，单月发生的借阅业务多达358笔。最大的借阅者群体是执业医师。人们认为，对这项服务的热烈反响证明有理由继续并扩大这项服务。
