ACAP Learning Resources: Online and Blended Students: Digitisation Requests

Digitisation Service

This service is available to all enrolled students and staff. Newly enrolled students may request two weeks prior to the commencement of their course.

As part of this service:

1 chapter or up to 10% of a library book is scanned and emailed to students
If a book is available as an ebook then students will be sent a link via email
If a requested chapter from a book is out on loan, the request will not be actioned until the book is returned
Requests for digitisation must be made through MultiSearch.

Note: Digitisation requests will not be sent if an ebook version is available and you will be sent a link to this version.
