Document Delivery
Document delivery bridges the gap between our library’s print and electronic collections and what is needed from other publications. The Anne Ross Library participates in the National Library of Medicine’s Docline interlibrary loan system and uses document delivery software to receive and transmit documents to and from other libraries and document providers. Contact a library staff member at the information desk to request articles from journals not available in our collections, or send an email message to: msullivan@rossmed.edu.dm or cwenham@rossmed.edu.dm
