If a resource is not available as an e-resource such as print book chapters, book sections and journal articles, the Library’s e-Reserve team can provide copyright compliant digitised versions for your Reading List.

The process includes adding a tag to a Reading List resource and can be added directly from LibrarySearch or by manual entry. More information on allowable digitisation requests can be found at Using copyright material for teaching.
