Requesting offsite journals and theses

We do have some journals and theses that are held in offsite storage and these can be requested as and when needed.
After searching in Discovery  , you find that the journal article you need is held offsite, you will see this information in request options which means you need to fill in a form to retrieve the journal.
Request options
Previously, the form has been a paper form at the Library Service Desk, but now we have introduced an online form.

You can access the form via the student or staff portal or by following the link

How to request offsite journals

If you have any problems with the form or have any other enquiries, please contact the Library Service Desk on 0131 451 3577 or teh IS Helpdesk on 0131 451 4045 or email ISHelp@hw.ac.uk
