How do I submit the request?


Answer

Print Resources at SAE

If a journal or a book is only available in the SAE library in print format, current students and staff can request an article or chapter from the item to be digitised.  Please be aware that copyright restrictions apply and as a result not all digitisation requests can be fulfilled.   

Whilst digitisation requests from SAE print collections aim to be processed within a 3-5 day period, this may be longer depending on demand. 

Requesting Articles and Chapters from Other Libraries

If an item is not held in the SAE Library collection, you may request a PDF of a chapter or an article via the inter-library loans service. The inter-library loans service is available to Australian staff members, students undertaking a major project and postgraduate students for teaching and research purposes. 

To place a digitisation or an inter-library loan article or chapter request:

  1. Go to the Library Catalogue;
  2. Search for the title of the item;
  3. Select the 'Libraries Worldwide' checkbox (if you would like to include items not held by the SAE Library);
  4. Open the item record;
  5. Click on the orange "Get a PDF" request button in the top right corner;
  6. Click "Sign into SAE University College Library" and log in to the library system;
  7. Fill out the form, selecting "I'd like this for personal use" or "I'd like this for teaching". (If you are an Australian academic staff member and would like the PDF to become a reading, please select the 2nd option and indicate the unit it is for). Please note, due to copyright limits, we can copy up to 10% or 1 chapter from the book. Please indicate the chapter name or pages you would like;
  8. Submit the request form.

 

If you are eligible, we will email you the requested PDF. 

If you are an academic staff member, and you selected "I'd like this for teaching", we will supply you with the link to the requested item you can share on Campus Online or other teaching platforms. For information on best practice for creating and publishing a reading list, go to the Reading List Best Practice Guide.
