Document Delivery Service
What Is document delivery?
Document Delivery Service is a service to UCR faculty, graduate students and staff, and to undergraduates with disabilities for obtaining articles located at the UCR Libraries. Requests are accepted through REQUEST, UC-eLinks and Citation Linker (not via the UCR Catalog, Scotty).
How long does it take?
Document Delivery requests will be processed within 48 hours, and a link will be sent to your email to retrieve the article.
What does it cost?
There is no charge for requesting articles.
How do I request UCR Library books that are not checked out?
Faculty, staff and students can place a hold for pick-up on material not checked out through SCOTTY. Please visit the Paging webpage for more information.
