Current Penn students, faculty, and staff can request scans of journal articles and conference papers that are 50 pages or less, due to our adherence to US copyright law.

For color or 600dpi scans, you will need to indicate your preference at the beginning of the article title on the request form, followed by the actual article title. For example:

• Article Title: [COLOR SCAN PLEASE] Cinematography in Black and White Films of the 1920's
• Article Title: [600dpi SCAN PLEASE] Recent Advances in MRI Technology

Note: Adding a note in the Comments field of the request form is not sufficient since the supplying library may not see it.

See our How can I request scans of journal articles and book chapters? FAQ for more details on the request process.
