Scanning for personal use (studies and research)

If you need to access a section of a book or journal, we can provide scans of items available in our libraries, up to the following copyright limits:

  • One chapter from a book, or 10% of the total number of pages (whichever is the greater) 
  • One article from a journal issue

These scans cannot be shared with others and this service is not suitable for providing teaching materials. For scans for teaching please visit our Scanning for Teaching webpage.
