In the past any paper journal articles that were not available from the SHU library were ordered for readers from the British Library and the copy retained by the reader.
This has now been superceded by a service called Secure Electronic Delivery (or SED).
• You will now receive a link to a pdf of the document requested instead of a photocopy.
• An email will inform you that the article is ready to download.
• You have 14 days to open and print the document which can be downloaded once.
• After 14 days, the link will be locked and cannot be accessed.
• If you open the document and close it without printing, you will not be able to gain further access! If this happens, please get in touch with the Library Document Supply Service who can arrange for another link to be sent out.
• The first time you use SED you will be asked to install the Digital Editions reader. This will take several minutes, but hang on!
• Legally, only one print copy is allowed. No further copies can be made from this and the text must not be cut and pasted or altered in any way.
• Readers with a visual impairment or dyslexia will need to request a special type of unencrypted pdf. Only this type of pdf will be compatible with the Assistive Technology software. Your local Document Supply Services team will be happy to arrange this.
