Remote Users
For: K-State Faculty, Graduate and Undergraduate Students
and
Students enrolled through Division of Continuing Education (DCE)
You may request copies of articles from journals or selected pages from books by completing online request forms. A separate form must be filled out for each request. The materials need not be in K-State Libraries; we will obtain them from other libraries if we don't have them. There are no fees for this service.
Delivery speed depends upon whether articles are supplied from the K-State Libraries' collection (supplied in approx 1-2 days) or obtained via interlibrary loan (often received in 2-5 days).
Most photocopies are delivered electronically to the Web. You will receive an e-mail each time we receive an article for you.
