Acquiring Resources

Please liaise with your relevant Head Librarian to determine whether a resource can be purchased.

Purchasing decisions are made based on multiple factors; including

  • Format
  • Vendor
  • Licensing agreements 
  • Cost

Some publishers offer preview or inspection copies to lecturers or subject developers, generally on the proviso that a title will be considered as a key resource for a subject. Publisher websites will provide information specific to their conditions, as well as contact details or forms.

Individuals requesting a preview/inspection copy of a text need to contact the publisher directly, this is a requirement of each publisher.
