Digitisation services

The Library offers services to digitise a range of materials:

Students and staff can submit a request for electronic copies from any book larger than A3 that cannot be scanned using the York Print Plus machines.

To submit a request, take your selected book to the Help Desk and complete a request form. There is no charge for this service.

Files will be sent by email or via the University DropOff Service (for large files) within three working days (Monday to Friday). The scanned sections will be delivered as PDF files unless otherwise specified.

The Digitised Archive Resources for Teaching (DART) service aims to provide high quality digital images of original archive material for use in teaching at the University of York. The service will aim to provide digital images within 20 working days of a request being submitted.
