REMOTE PHOTOCOPY REQUESTS
All requested materials which were previously provided as paper copies, could be delivered electronically. In order to save time and paper, copies of journal articles, book chapters etc. will be posted as a PDF document on a secure server ready for you to download or print. You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader (Version 5 or higher) installed to be able to read your document.
You will still request articles and books via the Photocopy Request Form and you will receive an email when your request is ready to collect. The email will contain a URL to where your ecopy is stored and instructions on how to download it. Your article will remain available on the server for a period of 10 days following your e-mail notification.
This will greatly improve delivery time, as opposed to being sent by mail, and you will be emailed immediately once the copy is posted to the server. You can still select to receive your documents in paper form, for pickup at the library, or to be mailed to you, by selecting the option regarding delivery instructions on the request form.
