Library Item Overview
This resource allows you to add items from the University Library directly into your course/class page. This can help to contextualise the use of the library resource for the student.
There are options to:
- Display the full details of the item, including a thumbnail graphic of the cover (if it is a book)
- Use the title of the resource direct from the catalogue.
Contacting the Library Services
Note: If your class contains more than one class code, the Library Item can only reference one Class code and will be only made available for one class code.
Before using the University Library Item resource on your class page, you will need to contact the Library so that you can request the certain materials you require to be made available for your class. As you will see below when you are adding a Library Item to your class page, the Library Item can be a Reading List, Exam Paper, Scanned Document or a Journal Article.
Please see below contact links use of the specific service from the Library:

Scanned Items
Strathclyde teaching staff who wish to request a scanned item(s) should submit an online Digitisation Request form for each item to the University Scanning Service.
Scanning Service staff will check for compliance with the Licence, and either arrange for the scan(s) to be made available, or advise if there are any problems.
Further information can be found on the Digitisation: FAQs page. Please email the Scanning Service if you have any queries
