How long will it take to available in the E-Library?

Digitisations are done on a first-come, first-served, basis. Digitisation requests should be submitted at least 3 weeks before the item is required and waiting times for documents are dependent on the current total number of requests. The process could take longer if the item to be scanned is not available in the Library stock or requested material is on loan.
