Document Delivery and Interlibrary Loans

(If the item is NOT in the CQ Library collection)

If the required item is NOT held at any of the CQ Library collections students have the following options:

• Contact your Liaison Librarian
  In many cases your Liaison Librarian can assist you to access suitable alternative resources on your topic. In the event that there are no other resources available, it is possible that your Liaison Librarian may be able to request a document delivery loan at no cost to you.
• Faculty Funds
  Some honours and postgraduate coursework students have access to special funding to assist with document delivery of items not held in the CQU Library Collection. Ask your supervisor for more information. Supplying library charge plus $5.00 (professing fee).
• Public Library
  Some items may be available through your public library.
• Family and Friends
  Do you have any family or friends who live in a capital city who have access to the holding library? Or can you combine a visit to the holding library with a scheduled visit to the city?
• Copies Direct (photocopies only)
  This is a user pays service offered by the National Library of Australia. The cost of copies is $A13.20 (GST incl.) for every 50 pages or part thereof from a single item (when held at the National Library of Australia). Delivery time is approximately 5 days. For more information see the Copies Direct web site (opens in a new window) .
