Staff and students of MTU Kerry can now make a request for items that are available in the library print collections and receive it electronically within copyright guidelines.
- The Library must own a copy of the item in order to be able to fulfill the request and you need to check first to see if it is available on the library catalogue here.
- If it is, proceed to submit your request here and we will scan and deliver it to you via email.
What can I request?
You can request:
- one chapter of a book
- one article from a journal issue/magazine
- one scene from a play
- one report of a single case from a volume of judicial proceedings
- one short story, poem or play (up to 10 pages) of an anthology
- OR 10% of the total publication, whichever is the greater
