By 1964, interlibrary loan and reference requests were sent to and from the Library via Telex. In 1969, a rather noisy Tickometer was purchased to automatically count and date-stamp catalogue cards.

Les bibliothécaires de la région d'Ottawa pouvaient aussi téléphoner pour demander des localisations à l'aide du Catalogue collectif. À partir de 1964, les demandes de prêt entre bibliothèques et de référence allaient et venaient de la bibliothèque par télex. En 1969, un Tickometer assez bruyant a été acheté pour compter et dater automatiquement les cartes du catalogue.
