Document Delivery Services

Document Delivery Service is a free electronic document delivery service for the UP Manila community. We are offering this service to accommodate library users who were unable to visit the library to borrow resources due to on campus entry restrictions.

It enables a library user to obtain scanned copies of a book chapter or journal article from the UP Manila Libraries' print collections. 

When a library user makes a request, we'll scan the needed book chapters, journal articles and send them via email for personal study and research.

Who may avail of this service?

UP Manila faculty, students, REPS, and staff
