ReQuest service

Are you a UVic faculty member or instructor? Request library items online and we'll send them to you!

How does ReQuest work?

We deliver books, chapters, articles and media from the UVic Libraries catalogue directly to your department or office on campus.

  • Physical items (including videos) will be signed out from the library and delivered to you. Videos are provided to faculty for 3-week loans to preview or screen in class.
  • Electronic or scanned materials will be emailed to you.
  • The ReQuest service is available to faculty members and instructors.
