Scan Service

You can use the scan service to order articles from journals and parts of books for use in digital teaching. The scans are equipped with OCR as standard.

Please check in advance in the Primus search portal whether the desired title is available in our collection. Scans from online resources cannot be made. If the title is not available, you can submit an acquisition request.

Orders are limited to 20 scans per month. Please understand that the processing of large orders may take a little longer.
