Under the terms of the University’s new Photocopying and Scanning Licence, the Library has introduced a service to make available, within certain limits, scanned extracts from books, journals and magazines published in a number of countries including the UK, USA, Canada, Australia and Ireland.
In preparing module reading lists, academic staff may now submit scanning requests for individual book chapters and journal articles to their Subject Librarian. To comply fully with the licence requirements, access to these electronic offprints will be made available through the appropriate online reading list (TalisList) on WebCT. Academic staff who are delivering distance learning courses may also make use of the priced HERON service for getting copyright clearance on material beyond the licence limitations.
Further details on either the new scanning service or HERON are available from your Subject Librarian.
