How to Request Articles or Book Chapters


Requesting Articles or Book Chapters

Please verify Library holding in the E-Journal Portal, which provides an A-Z listing of University's electronic holdings. If the Library does not own the title, or the issue is unavailable, you can submit request for article or chapter.

New Request

  • Log on to ILLiad and choose the "Photocopy" or "Book Chapter" option from the menu on the left.
  • Help us find exactly what you need by providing the ISSN or OCLC accession number. Both can be found by searching for the periodical title in WorldCat.
  • Note that some serials change titles one or more times during their publication history.
  • Each article or book chapter requires a separate request.
  • Some libraries might provide a maximum of 2 or 3 chapters, or 50 pages. We reserve the right to cancel requests if they exceed a library's copying limit.
