Document Delivery
Library patrons who wish to view print materials from anywhere in the world can utilize our document delivery service.
With document delivery, UCLA Library staff will copy items at the request of users. This fee-based service is provided only for articles available in print collections held by the Library. Users should consult UC Library Search(opens in a new tab) before submitting a request to make sure UCLA has a print copy of the item.
Items will be scanned and posted in PDF format on a secure web server unless another delivery option is selected. Requesters will be notified by email when the articles are available.
Books are not available through document delivery. Individuals with current UCLA library cards can borrow books in person. Those without library cards should contact their local library to request an interlibrary loan.
Individuals should provide credit card information by contacting participating libraries by telephone. Do not send credit card information by fax or email. Cost for each service is as follows:
