Using the service

Please submit all supply requests via our electronic request form. If there are any problems with the supply of materials, document delivery staff will contact you.

Chapter and article scans will be delivered through a PDF email attachment.

You will also be notified via email when your book is ready to be picked up at the library Reference Desk.

If you find you need more time with your book, please let us know at least one week before the due date so we can contact the supplying library. Please also remember that not all libraries allow for renewals.

Please return your book back to the reference desk when you are finished with it and ensure the strap on the front cover is still in place if there is one.
