The
Central Science Library is pleased to announce the re-launch of its document scanning service.
With the re-launch comes a change of name. The service will now be known as Scan and Deliver. The other major change, that users will need to be aware of, is that we will now be charging for the service.There are two methods of payment, online and by post.
Remote payment for this service can be made using the University's online store. There is a short registration process to go through when you make the first payment.
If you wish to pay by cheque or departmental order form that is acceptable but users should be aware that the request will not be processed until payment has been received. If you chose this method can specify on the web form in 'additional information.
We are required by law to make the charge and it is only intended to recoup our costs in providing the service
The charges will be as follows:
Current University students: £1.25 per item requested
Current University staff: £1.25 plus 20% VAT per item requested.
The service will function pretty much as before, users will submit requests using the
online form.Once received staff will check the request and email users with the relevant link where they can make payment.
Once we have received notification that payment has been made we will process the request.
