Purchase on Request Experiment

In November, the Library began a pilot program called "Purchase on Request" which adds links to books that we do not own into the catalog and prompts patrons to request the title if they would like it.  Both electronic and print titles are available for request and print titles will be rush ordered for the requestor.

While Latin American Studies Acquisition is not part of this program, you may see relevant titles from the several subject areas in the pilot program- Anthropology, Political Science, Business and Chemistry.  Please feel free to request these titles by simply clicking the REQUEST button.
