Document Supply: Home

The Document Supply service supplies extracts from items in our collections.

Before applying have you....

checked:

  • the library catalogue, WebCat,  to establish that we have the item you require within our collections?
  • to see if what you need is available online: many books and journals are now available in electronic format. The resources section of the Library website provides guidance on electronic resources.

What is the Document supply service?

From Wednesday 8th July we are able to provide the digitisation of book chapter or extract for items located in Hartley LIbrary. Requests can be submitted via the Requests & Document Supply option in WebCat.

The document supply service will:

  • copy items within our own collections (within copyright limits)
  • scan items to produce high quality searchable pdfs
  • supply direct to you via the University SafeSend service

  We aim to fulfill requests within two working days. 

Copyright limits apply: one article per journal or 10% from a book - whichever is greater.

This service is available to: 

  • All staff and students of the University of Southampton
  • University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust (UHS) staff
  • NOC staff

The Digital Scholarship Team has the equipment and expertise to produce work of the highest quality.
