About VDX
The University of California licenses the VDX system from OCLC to provide the basis for the UC Consortial Borrowing System. VDX manages UC's ILL processing and complements the internally developed components of Request.
The current version of VDX is 4.1. It was installed on August 1, 2010.
As of July 16, 2012 the VDX application is hosted by OCLC. CDL continues to provide support services for the VDX user community and maintains integration between VDX and Request.
VDX client applications
The primary interface to VDX for ILL staff is the VDX web client, at https://ucill.vdxhost.com/vdx.
A VDX Windows client, which is primarily an application configuration tool, is available via a remote desktop at https://apps.vdxhost.com. The remote desktop application requires Windows Explorer 8 or higher, and requires that the user download a Windows Explorer plug-in.
For further information on accessing and using the VDX client applications, see VDX technical documentation
