Services For Students Studying Off-shore

For ECU items, please request via the Catalogue.
When making request for loans and journal articles select “Remote ECU Students / Staff” as the pickup location.
For chapters from books held at ECU please submit requests using the Book Chapter Request Form.
Where possible we will supply copies online to your ECU email address.
External Undergraduates may request items from other WA Universities via Document Delivery Services provided the item is not held at ECU.

Photocopies
Photocopies are supplied free of charge. All requests must comply with Australian Copyright provisions.
Edith Cowan University Library will supply:

  • Photocopies from any item held at any ECU Campus Library
  • Photocopies from items held by West Australian libraries
  • Photocopies of ECU External examination papers that have been released to the Library.
    (Note that exam papers are available online from the library catalogue under the unit code.)

Books/videos
Sorry - loans aren't available to students not living in Australia. 
You may request the table of contents from a book to select a specific chapter for photocopying. See Australian Copyright provisions.

Reciprocal Borrowing
It may be possible for you to borrow from a university or other libraries in your area.
Fill out an application for an Introductory Letter and send it to External Library Services.
